All About My Lifelong Love Affair With Numbers and Me

My name is Edward Wright, I come from Ipswich and I finished my BA in Maths at Cambridge 12 years ago. I am currently employed as an Operational Research Consultant at British Airways. I’d like to tell you why I decided to start this site. In the beginning it was only a joke between my buddies and me. They joked around that I’ve given them so many useful tips that if I gather them, I will end up with my first blackjack book. Indeed, I decide to follow their advice for a change and compile a guide for blackjack players. And then it made perfect sense to me to put it online so everybody can use my insight and knowledge about online blackjack games and the best websites to find them.

What Really Is This Site About?

I’ve always been fond of maths so obviously my passion for blackjack is natural and long-lived. I remember that after I watched my first blackjack movie ‘Jinxed’ I was fascinated by the fancy casino glitz and glamour. But it was actually ’21’ that really got me into blackjack. I know, cliche, right. Most likely it was the fact that the movie was based on the true story of the MIT Blackjack Team which got me spellbound instantly, since I’ve always admired Edward Thorp. His book ‘Beat the Dealer’ is like a Bible for every blackjack lover and it proves mathematically that you can overcome the advantage of the house. And I’ve never believed in superstition or winning rituals, I’ve only trusted maths and my quick mind. Ergo I try to prove the exact same point in my articles and reviews – numbers never lie. Of course, the house edge plays a huge role, as well. Take Multi Hand Blackjack, for example – playing more than one hand at a time sure mixes things up. While Crazy Blackjack, on the other, brings something more to the table with the much-coveted 777 Jackpot. The same thing goes for Progressive Blackjack, where a life-changing jackpot may be won.

You are probably thinking by now, ‘Oh great. Here’s another quirky nerd who’s trying to convince me how simple it is to count cards and win.’ Definitely not! First of all, this is humanly impossible at the online tables. And at the same time, blackjack strategy is about logic, following the development of the game and estimating your odds, rather than memorizing photographically decks of cards. Another essential aspect when playing online is to choose a suitable variation of blackjack and find out which software provider has it. Some of them like to change the rules a bit in some versions. All of these topics are covered in my reviews so that even a beginner can work out a strategy. I have also included relevant information about the most advantageous blackjack promotions and bonuses so that you have a bit of a head-start. Since the offers change from time to time, I also update them on a regular basis. I can reassure the online casino skeptics that the experience is in no way inferior to the atmosphere at the land-based casinos, especially when it comes to live-dealer games. You can bring the thrill of the Las Vegas strip right in your living room wherever you are.

I would really like to think that this site fulfills its purpose and I managed to help more than just a couple of my friends. I also hope that in time I will meet more people who share my view about blackjack, we will be able to turn this website into a starting-point for every beginner and a trustworthy source of information for the experienced players. Let me stress that it’s crucial for blackjack fans to realise that this game is a great brain teaser, but it is by no means a way to earn a living. Always keep your head, stick to your strategy and enjoy!
