Canfield Master – Card Counting Strategy

Canfield Master – A proprietary, advanced, Level 2, balanced Blackjack strategy available from Canfield Associates since the mid-70's. This is a precursor to Carlson's Omega II with the same tag values. Side counts were suggested making this system quite difficult. Few people use this strategy today as it was designed for single deck and is no longer sold. Richard Canfield was a casino pit boss turned author.
