Introduction to the Game & History of Blackjack

I am Joe Marshall with Expert Village.com and today we are going to learn how to win at Blackjack. Today we are going to be discussing blackjack. Blackjack could be found dating back as early as the 1500’s and here in America we found in 1910 the first games were being played in Evansville, Indiana. Around that time, expert mathematicians were calculating the odds and defining strategies that basically would beat poker and blackjack in a long run, and in my opinion, the most credit should go to Dr. Edward Thorpe and the calculations of Julian Braun. He worked for IBM Corporation and MIT. Those guys both paved the way to make blackjack a beatable game. We will be talking about that now.
