Card counting shifting the edge in your favor

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

The reason for this is easy.

Low cards favour the croupier in 21 and high cards favour the player.

Low cards favor the dealer because they aid her make winning totals on her hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, 13, 14, fifteen, or sixteen total on her initial 2 cards).

In casino vingt-et-un, you can hold on your stiffs if you choose to, but the house can’t.

The dealer has no choice to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of gambling on vingt-et-un require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will break her.

The high cards favour the player because they could bust the croupier when he hits his stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.

Although blackjacks are, evenly dispensed between the casino and the player, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.

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

You just need to know at what point the deck is rich or reduced in high cards and you can up your action when the edge is in your favour.

This is a basic breakdown of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an insight into why the logic works.

When gambling on twenty-one over an extended time card counting will help in changing the edge in your favor by to around 2%.
