Card counting shifting the odds in your favour

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting system achieve an edge over the gambling den.

The reason for this is easy.

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

Low cards favour the croupier because they aid them make winning totals on her hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, 15, or 16 total on his first two cards).

In casino blackjack, you can stay on your stiffs if you choose to, but the dealer cannot.

The house has no choice to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of betting on 21 require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the shoe is in high cards that will break him.

The high cards favor the player because they may bust the dealer when she hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Although blackjacks are, evenly divided between the house 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 tally the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the croupier.

You only need to know when the deck is rich or poor in high cards and you can elevate your bet when the odds are in your favour.

This is a simple explanation of why card-counting schemes work, but gives you an insight into why the logic works.

When gambling on twenty-one over an extended term card counting will help in altering the edge in your favour by approx two percent.
