Card counting getting the expectation in your favor

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting system obtain an edge over the gambling den.

The reason this is easy.

Low cards favor the casino because they aid him acquire winning totals on her hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, 13, 14, fifteen, or sixteen total on his first two cards).

In casino 21, you can stay on your stiffs if you want to, but the croupier cannot.

The casino has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of gambling on blackjack require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the shoe is in high cards that will bust him.

The high cards favour the player because they could bust the dealer when she hits his stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Despite the fact blackjacks are, equally allocated between the dealer and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when she gets a blackjack so the player has an advantage.

You don’t have to compute the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the house.

You simply need to know at what point the shoe is loaded or depleted in high cards and you can elevate your action when the expectation is in your favour.

This is a simple breakdown of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an understanding into how the rationale works.

When wagering on vingt-et-un over an extended term card counting will assist in changing the expectation in your favour by to around 2 percent.
