1. What your hand is

2. What cards might be dealt from the shoe

If you add card counting that helps you determine the odds of cards coming out of the deck, then you can boost your bet size when the odds are in your favor and lower them when they are not.

You’re only going to win under half the hands you wager on, so it is important that you adjust bet size when the odds are in your favor.

To do this when betting on blackjack you must use basic strategy and card counting to succeed.

Basic strategy and counting cards

Since professionals and academics have been investigating vingt-et-un all sorts of abstract plans have arisen, including but not limited to "card counting" but even though the idea is complicated counting cards is pretty much straightforward when you wager on 21.

If when wagering on twenty-one you card count reliably (even if the game uses more than one deck), you can tilt the edge to your favour.

Chemin de fer Basic Strategy

Vingt-et-un basic strategy is assembled around a simple system of how you bet based upon the hand you are dealt and is statistically the best hand to play without counting cards. It informs you when gambling on twenty-one when you should hit or hold.

It’s surprisingly simple to do and is soon memorized and until then you can find free guides on the net

Using it when you wager on 21 will bring down the casino’s edge to near to even.

Counting cards getting the odds in your favour

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting approach gain an edge over the gambling den.

The reason for this is simple.

Low cards favour the croupier in 21 and high cards favor the gambler.

Low cards favor the house because they aid him make winning totals on his hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, or sixteen total on their 1st 2 cards).

In casino twenty-one, you can stand on your stiffs if you choose to, but the croupier can’t.

She has no decision to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of gambling on vingt-et-un require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will bust them.

The high cards favour the gambler because they may bust the casino when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

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

You do not have to count the data of each of the individual card to know when you have an advantage over the house.

You simply need to know at what point the shoe is rich or depleted in high cards and you can increase your wager when the odds are in your favour.

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

When betting on 21 over an extended time card counting will assist in changing the odds in your favor by approx two percent.
