    I assume you charge for this service? I’m interested in being trained, but I haven’t got much money… :(

    • andybloch Says:

      I do charge, but my blackjack DVD should be in your budget (if you’re interested in blackjack). I’ve just started offering autographed DVDs with a short phone consultation after. Also, I may in the future offer seminars or online webcasts which will be cheaper than private training.

    what is the average time it takes to be ready to go into a casino and be successful with your system after watching DVD?

    • andybloch Says:

      I recommend practicing 1-3 hours per day for 1 to 4 weeks. Really try to challenge yourself and simulate a real casino environment. Before you try it in a casino, have someone deal to you as you count, bet, and play, and stop every deck or two to double-check that you have the right count.

    How hard is it to count cards? Most people aren’t as intelligent as you are being an MIT and Harvard grad.

    • andybloch Says:

      I won’t say it’s easy, but you definitely don’t need to be an MIT graduate. If you can count up and down, you can count cards. You just need to practice until mistakes are rare, and memorize basic strategy.

    Would someone new to blackjack be able to learn from this dvd?

    • andybloch Says:

      Sure! You don’t need any blackjack experience, although the DVD assumes you know the basic idea of blackjack (highest total without going over 21 wins, player plays first before the dealer, etc.).

    Hi Andy
    Just saying hello through the back door…

  8. tony d Says:

    hey Andy what makes a great poker player in your opinion?

    • andybloch Says:

      A great poker player never stops trying to improve his or her game. If you stop learning and adapting to your opponents, eventually your opponents will be better than you.

      Note that a great poker player isn’t necessarily a winning poker player if he or she always plays against better players. To be a winning player, you just have to play against worse poker players.

      Would you rather be a winning poker player or a great poker player?
