So this evening driving between casinos, I listened to Part 2 of Gambling with an Edge episode featuring "the Doc". Doc is not a professional blackjack player, he is a medical doctor. But he is very serious about his card counting/AP career, treats it very professionally and has plans to play professionally when he retires from his medical career. I was very impressed with his professional approach. Kudos to "Doc" or "the Doc" for an informative and well done episode.

I strongly recommend both aspiring card counters (if there are any on this forum) as well as professional players take a listen to Doc. I found myself agreeing with almost everything he said, with the possible exception that a player can afford a little bit of cover. There are some low cost cover techniques that do make a difference as far as longevity.

During the interview it was mentioned that "the Doc" participates on at least one of the gambling/AP forums. I am not really familiar with "the Doc" from any forums. There is "Doc" at WoV, but I am not familiar with him being this serious of a blackjack player. Anyone know if this is the same "Doc"?
