Card counting tilting the edge in your favour

Card counting works and players use a card counting scheme gain an advantage over the casino.

The reasoning behind this is easy.

Low cards favor the croupier in blackjack and high cards favor the player.

Low cards favour the house because they assist her acquire winning totals on her hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, 13, 14, 15, or sixteen total on his initial 2 cards).

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

She has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the shoe is in high cards that will bust her.

The high cards favour the player because they may bust the croupier when she hits their stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Despite the fact blackjacks are, evenly divided between the house 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 do not have to compute the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the casino.

You just need to know at what point the deck is loaded or depleted in high cards and you can elevate your bet when the odds are in your favour.

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

When playing 21 over an extended time card counting will help in shifting the odds in your favor by approx two percent.
