The man who broke AC
I know this isn't specifically about gaming programs (please don't shoot) but I think it's worth a read anyway. Who knows, it may alter how these programs work in the long run.

Thanks for sharing. Great article would have loved to have seen it...
I wonder if he was able to negotiate surrender. I'm more of a craps player now, but I used to play BJ...but only at proprieties that allowed. Maybe that is why they got rid of it. When used correctly, you can do a lot of damage.

I'm a slot player.
But every now and then I get invites to table game tournaments. I played in a BJ tourn. in LAS (in tourn. you are playing against the other players and NOT the house.) But for the table I was at, the dealer got 21 in 80% of the deals--had Johnson encountered this scenario, I doubt he would have "broken the bank".
