Theory of Blackjack by Peter A Griffin

Peter Griffin's classic work provides insight into the methods and numbers behind the development of today's card-counting systems. The explanations and techniques within provide the means for analyzing almost every aspect of a blackjack game, including determining the accuracy of a card-counting system, identifying the proper basic strategy for playing any number of decks and set of rules, and analyzing the betting and playing strategies for any system. Griffin delivers the seminal work on the mathematics of blackjack while writing in a style that entertains as well as teaches.

At California State University, Sacramento, Peter Griffin taught mathematics and statistics. He has been interviewed extensively on radio, television, and in newspapers about probabilistic subjects, notably those related to casino gambling and the lottery. He is a member of the Blackjack Hall of Fame. Throughout the 1980s, Griffin worked for United Press International as an election eve statistics adviser, and he is thought to hold the world record for rope jumping by a gambling theorist--more than 400,000 jumps without missing.
