Before Beat the Dealer was published, few people knew about card counting, and most only had primitive systems. The author, Edward Thorp, analyzed the game, used computer simulations, and developed two effective strategies for beating the casinos at their own games. Over 30 years have gone by and there are simpler, more effective systems in existence now. But if you are naturally gifted when it comes to doing complex calculations in your head quickly, the 10 count system would still be wickedly effective for you. All in all it's a great book on classic strategy, and it should be noted that Thorp used a similar system to become a multi-millionaire in the stock market.
