Resumen del Editor
Nathaniel Tilton was leading an ordinary existence in his early 30s as a financial advisor in Boston. Then, without a destination in mind, he set out to experience life in more meaningful ways. His path was forged when he met famed MIT blackjack team member Semyon Dukach, who inspired Nathaniel to become a world-class blackjack player.
Together with his friend D.A., he dove headfirst into the life of an elite blackjack card counter. But while studying the many books available on blackjack strategy, he discovered that the tactics described all applied to either big teams or solo practitioners. Accordingly, adjustments were made so that the techniques would work while playing with a single partner. The result was the creation of a virtually undetectable small-team system, something never before documented.
The details of this secret system are delivered within the pages of this exhilarating narrative, describing a glitzy gambler's life of high-roller suites, gourmet restaurants, and top-shelf entertainment, along with a dark side of deception and personal risk that would eventually take him to the casino backrooms he'd hoped he would never see.
The Blackjack Life provides an informed view of the opportunities that still exist for skilled players, a detailed explanation of what it takes to become one, and a thorough chronicling of what it's like to travel that road. It's also the story of the growth of a man who discovered who he was and who he wanted to be in the unlikeliest of places - the world of a professional blackjack player.

Who were the Ship It Holla Ballas? Arguably the most successful poker crew of all time, they took advantage of the online poker boom to win tens of millions of dollars before most of them were old enough to set foot inside a casino. Then they did what any red-blooded teenagers with mountains of cash and no responsibilities would do: They partied like rock stars, transforming themselves from Internet nerds with zero life skills into legends, at least in their own minds.

At 24, Josh Axelrad held down a respectable and ominously dull job on Wall Street. Adventure was a tuna fish sandwich instead of the usual turkey for lunch. Then one night, a stranger at a cocktail party persuaded him to leave the nine-to-five behind and pursue an unlikely dream: the jackpot. The stranger was a blackjack card counter, and he sold Axelrad on the vision of Vegas with all its intrigue, adventure - and cash.

Historia
In the midst of the Go-Go '90s, the culture of greed infused the MIT campus. A small blackjack club sprang up, dedicated to counting cards and beating the house at major casinos around the country. The Club grew slowly at first, but by the late 1990s, the right people had come up with the right system to take some of the world's most sophisticated casinos for all they were worth.

A life Experience!
Great read, highly detailed and did not disappoint. I too live a similar life with the game but a slightly lower scale. Informative information on how powerful you can become when two people work together! Could not put this book down the entire time!!

Good overview for those interested in Blackjack
If you have any interest in Blackjack and all of the nuances that are involved to be successful, this is a winner. The author does a nice job of taking us through the journey from a complete novice to a seasoned professional. Many years ago I spent the time to become pretty proficient at counting cards and had some fun with it. This book makes it clear how much more is involved to really turn 21 into a profitable "business". His story seems totally believable and does not come off at all as bravado. He also references some other quality pieces of literature for those that are truly serious.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Best book on blackjack I have read thus far.
Interesting in blackjack or card counting? Start here. It is wildly entertaining. In fact, I listened to it twice before writing this review.

Great Book!
Mixed in with the fantastic story are plenty of little nuggets of information that will help develop a strategy to (maybe) not lose as much at the table

Solid information with great book references
For an aspiring blackjack player with no prior knowledge, this is a great first read. The author is clearly well read and it's worth writing down the books he references as further reading if you still "have the itch" by the end.
My gripes are two-fold: This book had the opportunity of being to the game of Blackjack what "The Game" was to pickup artists and an instant cult classic. The author instead chose to gloss over potentially interesting and exciting details that would've given additional insight into "the blackjack life", such as the nights out on the strip or some of the more fun and ridiculous things to do with winnings (there's a single anecdote about purchasing a painting, that felt kinda misplaced and left no lasting impression other than: cool).
But i also would've appreciated a deeper dive into how they utilized and weaponized all their charts and data sheets on casinos and dealers and cut card penetrations. it was mentioned throughout, but without explanation it just came off like a result of OCD and not really anything they used to ACTUAL effect when planning trips.
With that said, it's worth a listen.
