Card counting getting the odds in your favor

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting system gain an advantage over the casino.

The reason for this is easy.

Low cards favor the casino in twenty-one and high cards favour the gambler.

Low cards favor the dealer because they help them make winning totals on his hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, 13, fourteen, fifteen, or 16 total on her 1st 2 cards).

In casino vingt-et-un, you can stay on your stiffs if you want to, but the croupier can’t.

The house has no decision to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of betting on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the shoe is in high cards that will bust him.

The high cards favor the gambler because they might bust the house when she hits his stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.

Although blackjacks are, evenly allocated between the dealer and the player, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when he receives a blackjack so the gambler has an edge.

You do not have to compute the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an edge over the house.

You just need to know when the deck is rich or reduced in high cards and you can jump your wager when the odds are in your favor.
