  • Ian Andersen's first book, Turning the Tables on Las Vegas (Vanguard Press), is considered the classic book on casino comportment, or in layman's terms - beating the casinos and getting away with it.

    Unlike the early mathematics-based blackjack tomes, Turning concentrated on the psychological aspects of winning, and eventually sold more than 250,000 copies.Soon thereafter, Andersen returned to the casino trenches, where he spent the next 20-plus years, anonymously perfecting his personal program for success in blackjack and poker, as well as life's greater games.

    In his long-awaited sequel, Burning the Tables in Las Vegas, Andersen describes, in-depth, his carefully cultivated techniques for winning at blackjack, health, and happiness.

    After its publication, however, Andersen disappeared from the scene. Where did he go? The answer is spelled out in this long-awaited sequel, Burning the Tables in Las Vegas - Keys to Success in Blackjack and in Life.

    Andersen also explains how emotions, such as guilt and anger, and skills, such as discipline and interpersonal competence, can affect your prospects for profit.

    Peppered with fascinating anecdotes and stories from Andersen's forays into the great casinos of the world, Burning the Tables in Las Vegas takes you on a vicarious journey into the rarefied realm of the high-stakes blackjack pro--and shows you what it takes to be one.
