Anybody have any knowledge about Extreme Blackjack ?

I have sent a bank check for purchase of an e-book from them and have not received any response from numerous inquiries. I have the name of Richard Reid there and have tried contacting him directly again with no response.

Anybody deal with them ? DOes Mr. Reid visit this site ? Are they still in business ?

Thanks for any info .

Brad

Sorry I didn't post a response sooner I have been very busy. I am from the school of thought that you should read everything about the game that you can get your hands on and that every book will teach you something if you look deep enough. That being said most serious players will already know most of what is in this book (which is true of most books you read)His multi tier betting strategy is interesting it would probably work wonders on people who know enough to think they are smarter then they actually are. Also his thought on mixing up your game "playing dynamicly" is a very good idea. I don't feel the count system is worth learning in todays world (I myself play the Uston APC and If I had to start over I would not pick a difficult count) He also has an interesting system for keeping the count in different deck segments for shuffle tracking although it doesn't go into great depth. Last but not least he has a good section on record keeping and how to evaluate your records and your teamates records to see where your game needs improvement. If you are a serious player the 30-40 this book costs is worth it however if you play more for recreation you might be better off keeping the money for your bankroll. Hope this helps. SM

thanks, i did just receive the download info and am into the book now. I appreciate your impressions of it. I was especially interested in his promotion of the multi-tired betting, the log keeping and the shuffle tracking. I'll let you know what I think of it

Extreme BJ the table game?

The thread you posted on is about "extreme blackjack" the online book by Richard Reid...If ou were playing the table game remind me of the rules....I think this game is where the dealer plays their hand different against each player to maximize the house edge. Does this sound close. SM

Extreme Blackjack is a carnival game

No, it does not have better odds than real BJ, in fact, quite the opposite. No game in the house has odds as good as BJ (given that you learn at least basic strategy and don't believe the stupid things people tell you at the table. You got lucky. Never play that game again! Really! BJ has the best odds in the house, under 1/2% --

Lesson: When people win at losing games, they get hooked. That is not a good thing. If you continue to play a losing game, you will lose.
