Jake Jacobs is a multifaceted individual, simultaneously pursuing a career as a freelance writer and a professional gambler.
As a child, he had a passion for acting, studying the craft extensively,
although his sole film credit to date remains an ill-fated psychic role in his brother Richard W. Munchkin's 1987 film, Dance or Die.
Following a stint in the data processing field, Jacobs transitioned to a career in the service industry, working as a cabdriver and dispatcher.
However, his life took a dramatic turn when a blackjack team recruited him, and he has since honed his skills as a blackjack player in casinos spanning the globe, from Costa Rica to Kathmandu.
In addition to his gaming prowess, Jacobs is a skilled backgammon player, having claimed victories in the U.S. and Thai Open championships.
Furthermore, he is the author of two notable books: CAN A FISH TASTE TWICE AS GOOD and A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FOUR-POINT.
