Using it when you play twenty-one will bring down the casino’s edge to near to zero.

Counting cards shifting the edge in your favour

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting plan realize an edge over the casino.

The reason this is simple.

Low cards favour the croupier in chemin de fer and high cards favour the gambler.

Low cards favour the dealer because they aid her acquire winning totals on their hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, or sixteen total on her first two cards).

In casino blackjack, you can stay 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 edge. The rules of wagering on twenty-one require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will break them.

The high cards favour the gambler because they may bust the house when he hits their stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.

Despite the fact blackjacks are, evenly distributed between the croupier and the player, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when she gets a blackjack so the player has an advantage.

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

You only need to know at what point the deck is loaded or depleted in high cards and you can increase your action when the edge is in your favour.

This is a simple commentary of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an understanding into how the rationale works.

When gambling on twenty-one over an extended time card counting will help in altering the edge in your favor by approx 2 percent.
