The Blackjack Ball is a double secret party that Max has hosted for ten years running that pits the world’s most dangerous blackjack players in a battle for the coveted “Blackjack Cup,” a trophy which proclaims them to be that year’s “ World’s Greatest Blackjack Player.”

Entry to the Ball is by invitation only and each guest is required to bring one chilled bottle of premium champagne to get past the security at the door. Rather than go on and on, Max will once again take the easy way out and let you read a reprint of an article he wrote for Casino Player Magazine about the 2000 event.
