Counting cards getting the odds in your favor

Card counting works and players use a card counting approach realize an advantage over the gambling hall.

The reasoning behind this is simple.

Low cards favor the house in blackjack and high cards favour the gambler.

Low cards favor the casino because they help him acquire winning totals on her hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, or 16 total on his first 2 cards).

In casino blackjack, you can stay on your stiffs if you choose to, but the house cannot.

The house has no decision to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing blackjack require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the shoe is in high cards that will bust them.

The high cards favour the gambler because they could bust the house when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Despite the fact blackjacks are, evenly dispersed between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when he gets a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.

You do not have to compute the data of each of the individual card to know when you have an edge over the croupier.

You simply need to know when the deck is rich or poor in high cards and you can jump your bet when the edge is in your favour.

This is a simple explanation of how card-counting schemes work, but gives you an insight into why the rationale works.

When playing vingt-et-un over the longer term card counting will aid in altering the expectation in your favor by approx two percent.
