在加利福尼亚州的圣迭戈，Barona赌场是二十一点名人堂大厅的家。二十一点名人堂厅于2002年创办，是一些世界上最大的最棒的游戏理论家的集合地，是向专业21点玩家和21点的作家致敬。

　　二十一点名人堂大厅有每个成员有权互补室，在其整个一生中Barona酒店的食品和饮料，但是一个条件：他们从未试图玩在赌场的21点。

　　BlackJack厅成名游戏他们所作出的贡献的基础上，21点玩家入选。在互联网投票，被选为前7入选之后，名人堂成员馆已完成选择新成员的任务。

　　这里是一些传说中的二十一点名人堂大厅被认可的玩家：

　　爱德华·索普

　　一位前麻省理工学院数学系教授，爱德华·索普是进入名人堂的21点厅间的第一次入选。索普是著名的用书面技术击败庄家的玩家，突破性的卡用在扑克分析计数上，再次证明一个数学上有效的战略，可以提高赌场优势和进行所有算牌。

　　据21点传奇索普，他不只是鼓吹在21点使用计数卡，他还经常练它。他的方法非常成功，他曾多次从赌场中被开除，并最终被迫使用各种伪装，来以测试他的方法。由于他的恶名传播，所以他没有著作的兴趣，最后击败庄家获得70万拷贝。

　　斯坦福大学的黄

　　斯坦福黄是21点最有名的品牌之一，当然这是一个化名。黄的真正名字是约翰·弗格森，斯坦福大学的前财务讲师。黄是用著名的创建软件来分析21点，仅仅作为21点分析仪。

　　然而，黄真的证明了他的创业精神，是在“Wonging”技术的发展上。这个简单的技术参与卡保持在加入游戏前甲板的轨道，从而避免不必要的损失，然后在最大化的同时，积极参与比赛中获胜的机会。黄的技术是如此有效，随后许多赌场禁止其在21点游戏的进入。

　　肯Uston

　　肯Uston是在21点的历史最成功的玩家之一。毕业于耶鲁大学，依靠自己的能力成为一个辉煌的商人和企业家。但二十一点算牌理论的探讨使他迷恋。

　　Uston是著名的团队算牌的开拓者之一。他被形容为一个“天才”卡计数器，并相信有百万游戏种类。由于他的成功，Uston很快就发现，被从赌场中禁止，而他被迫使用各种形式的托词获得进入赌场的权利，以使用他的方法。

　　Uston对于21点游戏最重要的贡献也许是他对大西洋城的赌场的成功诉讼，因为他们禁止他进入他们的赌场。 Uston，导致新泽西州最高法院下达裁决，赌场无权禁止其它熟练的玩家进入赌场。

　　译文

　　The Barona Casino in San Diego, California, is the home of the Blackjack Hall of Fame. Inaugurated in 2002, the Blackjack Hall of Fame is a tribute to some of the world's greatest greatest game theorists, professional blackjack players and blackjack writers.

　　Each member of the Blackjack Hall of Fame is entitled to complementary rooms, food and beverages at the Barona Hotel throughout their lifetimes – on one condition: that they never attempt to play blackjack at the casino's blackjack tables.

　　Blackjack players are inducted into the Blackjack Hall of fame on the basis of the contributions they have made to the game. The first 7 inductees were chosen in an Internet poll, and thereafter, Hall of Fame members have been presented with the task of selecting new members.

　　Here are just some of the legendary blackjack players who have been recognised by the Blackjack Hall of Fame:

　　Edward O. Thorp

　　A former MIT professor of mathematics, Edward O. Thorp was amongst the first inductees into the Blackjack Hall of Fame. Thorp is famous for having written Beat the Dealer, the groundbreaking analysis of card counting in poker that proved once and for all that card counting is a mathematically valid strategy for turning the tables on the house.

　　According to blackjack legend Thorp didn't just preach the use of card counting in blackjack, he also practiced it. His methods were so successful that he was repeatedly expelled from casinos, and was eventually forced to use various disguises to test his methods. As his notoriety spread, so did interest in his book, and Beat the Dealer eventually sold 700,000 copies.

　　Stanford Wong

　　Stanford Wong, one of the most famous names in blackjack, is a pseudonym. Wong's real name is John Ferguson, a former finance lecturer at Stanford University. Wong is famous for creating one of the first pieces of software capable of analysing blackjack, known simply as the Blackjack Analyser.

　　However, where Wong really proved his pioneering spirit was in the development of the 'Wonging' technique. This simple technique involved keeping track of cards in a deck before joining the game, thereby avoiding needless losses, and then maximising winning opportunities while actively involved in the game. Wong's technique was so effective that many casinos subsequently banned mid-shoe entry into blackjack games.

　　Ken Uston

　　Ken Uston was one of the most successful card counters in the history of blackjack. The Yale graduate was a brilliant businessman and entrepreneur in his own right, but was driven to explore the theory of card counting by his fascination with blackjack.

　　Uston is famous for being one of the pioneers of team card counting. However, he was described as a 'genius' card counter in his own right, and is believed to have made millions from the game.  As a consequence of his success, Uston soon found himself barred from casinos and forced to use various forms of subterfuge to gain access to casinos in order to utilise his methods.

　　Uston's most important contribution to the game of blackjack was perhaps his successful lawsuit against Atlantic City casinos for barring  him from their tables. Uston's case resulted in the New Jersey State Supreme Court ruling that casinos have no right to bar skilled players from their premises.
