    ES: Two New Worse Than Worthless Blackjack Books

    1. Betting on Blackjack by Frits (sic) Dunki Jacobs (Feb. 2004)

    Correct basic strategy with a typo-a soft double line is missing in the chart, BUT progression system is recommended.

    2. Winning Blackjack by Lyman Hall, Ph.D. (Jan. 2004)

    Very small paperback that recommends progression system.

    I was given this book as a gift since I go to Vegas so much. I didn't have the heart to tell the gift giver that it was a piece of junk. Although, I must admit I do enjoy keeping a collection of some of the worst books ever written. Lyman Hall fits well into this collection.

    This would be the most interesting piece of information in the book.

    Subject of study for the Ph.D would be informative too. Sounds like it was basket-weaving.
