Cheating at Blackjack

It’s bold, it’s risky, and it’s illegal. It’s cheating casinos for a living! 


Cheating at Blackjack reveals the anatomy of casino “crossroading” and how professional con men, sleight-of-hand artists, and sophisticated teams have, for years, duped game-protection specialists and surveillance to fleece casinos at their own games. 


With clear explanations and detailed illustrations, Dustin D. Marks, one of the world’s greatest casino cheats from both the player and dealer sides of the table, divulges the arcane secrets heretofore known only to a few. Marks’ extensive repertoire of cheating techniques included handmucking, stacking, past-posting, switching in coolers, co-opting bosses, playing with agents, and using computers, and he details the psychology, set-up, and execution behind all of the moves via real-life stories that put you right in the middle of the action. 


This unique exposé, which combines and updates the author’s two previous books, provides a rare peek inside the clandestine world of casino cheating, where the stakes are high—both in money to be won and freedom to be lost.
