Blackjack Insider Newsletter, October 2002, #34

A WORD FROM HENRY

We have streamlined the format of the Blackjack Insider Newsletter. The newsletter is being published as a text document (rather than HTML) with a summary of the content of each article followed by a link to the entire article. The above changes will 1) allow readers to quickly scan the newsletter to decide which article they wish to read in more detail and 2) facilitate the distribution of the newsletter in a more timely manner.

A reminder - if you come across an unfamiliar blackjack term in one of our articles or reports, see our Blackjack Glossary.
