An AP and expert blackjack player turned venture capitalist and hedge fund manager who has participated in a billion dollars worth of deals, Joel Block has adapted these skills, attitudes, and philosophies to business. His cage-rattling keynote speeches and media appearances expose Advantage Play™, the art of knowing what comes next because, for APs, winning is inevitable.
