Blackjack Hall of Fame, Gambling hall of fame at Barona Casino in San Diego, United States.
Blackjack Hall of Fame is a gallery at Barona Casino in San Diego showcasing photographs, accomplishments, and contributions of professional players and mathematics experts. The display documents how these individuals shaped strategies and knowledge that advanced the game.
The hall opened in 2002 with seven founding members, including Edward Thorp who created the first mathematical card-counting methods. This launch marked the beginning of formally recognizing breakthroughs in blackjack strategy and analysis.
Members have authored publications and developed mathematical approaches that fundamentally changed how people think about the game. Their work continues to shape the way players understand and engage with blackjack today.
You can view the gallery while visiting the casino, and it is relatively easy to find within the resort. Having some familiarity with English helps you read the background information and understand the context of each inductee's contributions.
An annual gathering called the Blackjack Ball brings together players and experts who vote on new inductees and share their methods. This event is one of the few occasions where leading minds in blackjack come together to exchange knowledge and insights.
