Gambling Book/Website Suggestions ?

My father loved to gamble, and was a big Blackjack player.  He was an incredibly smart guy, and always did his homework before ever doing anything at all.  That was no different when it came to gambling.  I remember seeing him read several Blackjack books, which was his favorite game to play.  Do you guys own any good gambling books or know of any website where you can learn skills to play certain games like Blackjack, Poker etc?

I don't know much about books or sites that have Blackjack as specifics but I think that YouTube can be a useful site for you because you can just type in the video that you want to watch and see the results, I feel like this is an absurd answer though but even if YouTube is a deplorable website, there's always a good space that you can use. My recommendation would probably be about Card Counting.

[Fesatmas]

I don't have too many references to reading about gambling books, especially blackjack, but there are some that I found, such as Knock-Out Blackjack: The Easiest Card-Counting System Ever Devised (Gambling Theories Methods) which is a book by Olaf Vancura and Ken Fuchs. but I would suggest you to visit the book gallery where I think your beloved father can learn.
You can easily download it as a FILE.

I think the basic strats for starting is enough, like this:


I'm not a blackjack user, but watching "LetsGiveItsSpin" stream always using this basic table for playing blackjack really helps from my experience. Off course, you need other users who has basic knowledge like this. The most shity situation on BJ, went you playing with other people who split 10 ~XD

One of the sites had able to add up some games like slots but it is purely blackjack gaming wayback or before.

I have three poker books on my bedside table.  I always read them before bed. 

The first book is "Your Worst Enemy of Poker".  Its author is Alan Schoonmaker.  The book was written in 2007 and is devoted to the psychology of the game of poker. 

The second book is "Poker math made easy" by Roy Rounder.  This book is essential for all people who want to learn how to play poker well.  She teaches you how to calculate your chances in your head, as well as the chances of your opponents. 

The third book is "Poker Therapy" by Peter Clarke.  This is a very detailed analysis of all the patterns and stereotypes that prevent poker players from achieving outstanding success in the game.

I'm not good at this game but I have a little knowledge.

Not sure if this book exists, I saw this in the movie The Hangover and it's use by one of the casts who wins big money in a blackjack game.

Hmm... interesting because I see this in https://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Greatest-Blackjack-Book/dp/0385153821

Beat the Dealer by Ed Thorp is the blackjack book I've heard recommended the most. Its considered a classic.

https://www.amazon.com/Beat-Dealer-Winning-Strategy-Twenty-One/dp/0394703103

I haven't read many books on gambling. Would recommend steering clear of anything that teaches martingale strategy(which I suspect was devised by casino owners as a way to increase their profits). What is good content is anything involving the mathematical side of gambling. That can consistently be used to improve skill.

Those two sites are gambling sites, not really a good recommendation for someone who is looking for a place to learn skills to play blackjack and poker. Better to find some free websites or application where you can play for free without any risks of losing money. Once you are ready to play with some money, then you can visit the real gambling sites.@ChiBitCTy I do not really like to read book so I have no idea what to suggest, but you can learn/practice your skills by some mobile applications. Simply use the keywords poker or blackjack in the app store and you can play it anytime you wish. I think learning by doing better than reading books with many pages but for sure you need to read the basic knowledge first about the game before practicing.

Online gambling is the most popular type of gambling nowadays. Its rapid proliferation in the gambling world and the surpassing revenue growth with each passing year have made it the head of many countries around the world it would be best to learn from gambling books by watching videos on youtube although there is a lot of old information in the book, there are always new things on youtube which is a good website for learning gambling.

Im with this on where it is much better on watching out vids rather than on reading up some books (on my own preference)

These two links would be helpful for sure.

This is a wonderful discovery to see people that are only interested in playing only one type of game. For your interest and love for Blackjack, I will advise to go online especially social media like YouTube and get the choice of what you really want if you really want to learn more. You can find more on BLACKJACK on YouTube and also join YouTube channels that are of your interest with many fantastic strategies to learn. That is where I learnt a lots of strategies about some certain games I'm addicted to now.

I watch Blackjack Apprenticeship on Youtube and he's a pretty entertaining channel.

You can certainly learn something when it comes to card counting but at the end of the day just don't view it as a long term profit making venture. Your time is likely going to be worth much more than what you'd gain from playing blackjack professionally.

Especially with the demise of physical casinos, I don't even think it's worth it to learn card counting unless it's just a hobby.

I think that you should probably first learn basic strategy.

Basic strategy is widely available and you can find it pretty much everywhere. Even Wikipedia would work for this.

Then to actually learn the different methods you might want to read some books/attend some sort of coaching. https://blackjack.coach/ is a great site for this, they pretty much go through all aspects that you would want to know about.

If i see the story about your dad i believe he is a professional dad in blackjack and poker games.

Blackjack everyone knows it is one of the most popular casino games around the world, almost all countries in the world people have played Blackjack, what I want to say is: Blackjack has different variations in each country, not all countries are the same type of game is certainly different, in essence the digit 21 is reached.

Example: types of Blackjack games in general such as: Change It 21, F B Blackjack, V S Blackjack, W Blackjack, SD Blackjack and many others, these are all Blackjack games, also different ways of playing such as: 6-8 48, hit 17, 4 deck 52 cards, Spanish 21 and so on.

What I want to ask @ChiBitCTy is: what type of Blackjack game does your dad play the most and what is his favorite you've seen....!
For that at least we are here to find books about Blackjack, poker guides that you can learn, because the types and ways of playing Blackjack are different, of course the explanation books are also different, There are many books about Blackjack, there are at least one or two that you want to learn, I mean the most favorite Blackjack game book and often played by your father.

I own many courses about blackjack on Udemy but I have some books too that I rarely use. I preferred video course on Udemy because you can easily understand all tricks due to visual advantage. There's some quiz and exam too on video course so you can practice the method in actual without risking money on experimenting on online casino.

I remember that there are was a website about poker tutorials in my country,which was active a few years ago.I don't remember the domain name,but there were multiple poker tutorials and links to the best casinos.
The bast way to learn poker or blackjack is to practice.Reading some books and watching tutorials might help a little bit,but becoming a skilled player can be done only thru playing a lot against other good players and even making mistakes.Learning from your mistakes is the best way to learn.

What I know is that experience is very important while playing any type of game, it is good to just start gambling with low amount of money and play to have the experience. I do not know much about blackjack but I have experiences about football gambling which is my favorite type of bet, I noticed I started to check sites I can check the recent things about football and also making use of statistics and other events that has happened in the past. But with what I see about blackjack type of bet, I think this type of gambling should really be just for fun, winnings are not likely to be more than losses, but just use small amount of money to do the thing and enjoy blackjack as you play and never spend beyond your monthly budget, if you are, that is the beginning of addiction.

Your father still loves reading books a good thing I just only know is the greatest gambling book and I didn't read all of those pages already because I'm easily distracted when I saw another book regarding gambling well base on my experience it has good content you can try this too.

I guess his father just really love books and just want to know regarding gambling getting experience in gambling is good but still we can not remove there's people who really get ideas base what they read.

if you are looking for a reference book about the game of blackjack, maybe you can try a book that is quite famous among blackjack players, namely Beat the Dealer, the book was written by Edward O Thorp who is one of the number one Blackjack players in the world, as far as I know in the book There are several tricks and tips that are based on personal experience and knowledge of computerized card counting systems so as to make the chances of winning bigger when playing.
If you are interested, you can look for it in physical bookstores or online and maybe you can also look for it on the internet who knows the book is available in digital form.

I don't read any gambling books, because it is a game based on skill so reading books will really help to improve skills but that happens if try it too, theory will never work without practice.
I found this while searching it on google https://www.casino.org/blackjack/how-to-play/ and trying to learn it, and will also find where you can play for free.
