warning: illegal at casinos Ok, so I'll try to make this a really simple tutorial. For this is a really simple way of counting cards. It just takes practice and you will be winning blackjack all the time!!!! The first thing that you'll need to learn is the way the cards are classed. So il make a little table right now...... 2,3,4,5,6 | count 1| 7,8,9|count 0| ace, 10, jack, Q, K As you can see, there are separate groups of card values. The 20 small cards (2-6) are counted as plus 1 as they are played. The 12 middle cards (7-9) are considered neutral cards and do not change the count as they are played. The 20 big cards (10-Ace) are counted as minus 1 as they are played. This system is considered to be a balanced system because if you counted down every single card in a 52 card deck, you would end up with a count of 0. It takes a lot of practice to get this strategy right right unfortunately. If you do not have patience you can't learn this. Let's give an example to give you a better understanding. 3 9 A K This would give you a -1. Under stand why? We start at zero, the 3 is on the positive side of the chart I written down earlier. So we add 1. The 9 has no value so we don't add anything. The ace has negative 1 value so we subtract one. To equal to the total of zero. The king also has a negative value so we subtract one again. To equal negative 1. Whats the point of this you may ask? Well if you counted every card that has been played through the entire game and it's in the negatives than that means that their is a lower chance of you getting a higher value card. Or if it's in the possitives that means their is more of a chance of you getting a higher card dealt to you. This may be really confusing to you, or you might understand it. But if you don't know how to play blackjack this thread will confuse you even more. Remember, When you first sit down at a blackjack table, that is using a new full shoe of cards, the count at the table starts at 0. From the initial 0 count, you will be adding 1, subtracting 1, or adding 0, for every single card that is dealt. If you accidentally miss cards that are dealt and your count gets off, you can shift your odds of winning without your knowledge. Thanks for reading, I will add in some pics for better understandment lator. Sup_bro
me and a group of friends used to meet up and practice Idk what happened to them... We hadn't went to the real tables yet
Counting cards isn't actually illegal. It is simply frowned upon by casinos, and they will even kick you out for it, because when you count cards the odds are in your favor and you win a lot more money which would normally go to the house instead.
