Default Golden Touch Blackjack

I've been interested in Frank Scoblete's blackjack card counting system. Has anyone read the book or taken the seminar that could provide a review. Is it worth the investment?

My personal observation is that it's not much harder to learn and use an unbalanced level 1 count like KO or Red 7. You'll get roughly a 3x increase in your earn rate using KO/Red 7 over Golden Touch.

Next time you're in a bookstore, pick up the Knockout Blackjack book and compare the systems and simulation results from the 2 books. You'll probably draw the same conclusion.

I haven't read the book, but I recognize his name he puts out a lot of garbage. Like "Roulette your way to rich's" or stuff along those lines. There's a lot better out there. Look up Kevin Blackwood's book Play Blackjack like the pros. It's one of the more down to earth books I've read regarding blackjack. In other words it gives you a realistic and accurate view on the game. i.e. you need a $10k bankroll to play at a $10min table. If you're playing shoes and spreading your bets around 1:16.
