THE CASINO SEES EVERYTHING.

THE CARDS TELL NO LIES.

BUT DO YOU KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME?

? ? ? ?

What really separates a blackjack player from a gambler?

After nearly three decades at tables across Las Vegas,

Atlantic City, the Caribbean, cruise ships, and casinos

throughout the country, Sam Barrington learned that

winning blackjack is about far more than knowing when

to hit, stand, split, or double down. It is about discipline,

preparation, money management, observation, timing-

and knowing when to walk away.

At one point, Barrington was barred from 46 casinos.

He wasn't caught cheating. He wasn't relying on some

Hollywood fantasy of card counting.

He was winning.

In Ask Dr. Blackjack, Barrington opens the door to the

real world of casino blackjack, sharing the hard-earned

lessons, strategies, mistakes, statistics, and unforgettable

stories gathered through years of actual play.

Inside, you'll discover practical guidance on bankroll

management, buy-ins and cash-outs, casino security,

comps, tipping dealers, card counting, avoiding costly

mistakes, handling difficult hands, splitting pairs,

doubling down, insurance, high-roller rooms, and

much more.

But this isn't a dry strategy manual.

It's a first-person journey into the sights, sounds, risks,

psychology, and strange characters of Casino Land-

where fortunes can change in minutes, every move can

be watched, and knowing when to leave can matter just

as much as knowing how to play.

Forget the myths. Forget the movies.

Pull up a chair, put your money management in order,

and see blackjack from the perspective of a man who

spent years treating the game like a business.

The cards are on the table.

The question is: are you ready?

Play within your means.

Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
