Card counting shifting the expectation in your favour
Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting approach achieve an edge over the casino.
The reason this is simple.
Low cards favor the casino in 21 and high cards favor the gambler.
Low cards favour the house because they aid him acquire winning totals on their hands when she is stiff (has a 12, 13, 14, 15, or sixteen total on their 1st 2 cards).
In casino chemin de fer, you can stand on your stiffs if you want to, but the dealer can’t.
She has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing vingt-et-un require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will bust them.
The high cards favor the gambler because they may bust the casino when she hits her stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.
Although blackjacks are, equally dispersed between the casino and the gambler, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when he receives a blackjack so the player has an edge.
You don’t have to count the numbers of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an edge over the house.
You only need to know at what point the deck is flush or poor in high cards and you can jump your wager when the odds are in your favor.
This is a basic account of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an insight into why the logic works.
When playing 21 over the longer term card counting will help in changing the edge in your favor by approx two percent.
