Of all the sports available in this world,
blackjack is certainly one of the strangest. In all other sporting pursuits, be it baseball, football, golf, tennis or poker, the best players in the world
not only get to bring home the bacon, their pictures are plastered on
everything from magaziness to cereal boxes. Yet in blackjack, the best of the
best are forced to act like spies not yet in from the cold, hiding their
identities and their intentions behind numerous facades, the penetration of which
would mean their swift ejection from the game. Like the cold warriors of
yesterday, once identified, a card counters days are numbered.
