There have been a lot of blackjack shows since the MIT books came out. Suddenly everyone wants to make millions by beating the casinos. The Discovery Channel is just showing people what they want to see. Several years ago everyone wanted to watch dinosaurs, then they wanted to watch penguins, now they want to watch gambling shows. The shows will definitely get a lot of bad players into the casinos, but that just makes things easier for those of us who know how to win.

Thing is, I don't recall seeing poker strategy ads despite its popularity over the last 10 years. Now, I do in the last year.

Theres plenty of face cards to make 20, but it takes an Ace to make Blackjack.
