Card counting shifting the expectation in your favour
Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting plan gain an advantage over the gambling hall.
The reason for this is simple.
Low cards favor the croupier in twenty-one and high cards favour the gambler.
Low cards favor the dealer because they help her make winning totals on their hands when he is stiff (has a 12, 13, 14, 15, or sixteen total on his first 2 cards).
In casino blackjack, you can stay on your stiffs if you choose to, but the casino cannot.
He has no decision to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of wagering on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the deck is in high cards that will break her.
The high cards favor the player because they could bust the dealer when she hits her stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.
Although blackjacks are, equally dispersed between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the player has an advantage.
You do not have to add up the data of each of the individual card to know when you have an advantage over the house.
You only need to know when the deck is rich or poor in high cards and you can increase your bet when the edge is in your favour.
This is a basic explanation of why card-counting plans work, but gives you an understanding into how the logic works.
When betting on blackjack over an extended term card counting will assist in shifting the odds in your favour by to around two percent.
