1. The cards in your hand

2. What cards might be dealt from the deck

When gambling on blackjack there is mathematically a best way to play every hand and this is called basic strategy. If you add card counting that helps you calculate the odds of cards being dealt from the deck, then you are able to boost your action amount when the odds are in your favor and lower them when the odds are not.

You are only going to win under half the hands you play, so it is important that you adjust wager size when the risks are in your favour.

To do this when gambling on 21 you must use basic strategy and card counting to succeed.

Basic strategy and card counting

Since mathematicians and academics have been investigating twenty-one all kinds of complex plans have been developed, including but not limited to "counting cards" but even though the theory is complicated card counting is actually very easy when you bet on twenty-one.

Vingt-et-un Basic Strategy

Twenty-one basic strategy is centralized around an uncomplicated system of how you bet based upon the hand you are dealt and is mathematically the strongest hand to play while not counting cards. It informs you when wagering on vingt-et-un when you need to hit or hold.

Using it when you bet on blackjack will bring down the casino’s edge to near to zero.

Counting cards tilting the edge in your favour

Card counting works and players use a card counting plan obtain an advantage over the gambling den.

The reason for this is easy.

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

Low cards favor the dealer because they help him acquire winning totals on his hands when he is stiff (has a 12, thirteen, 14, 15, or 16 total on their initial 2 cards).

In casino vingt-et-un, you can hold on your stiffs if you choose to, but the casino can’t.

He has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of betting on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will bust her.

The high cards favor the gambler because they could break the house when he hits his stiffs and also blackjacks are made with aces and tens.

Although blackjacks are, evenly divided between the casino and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when she gets a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.

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

You just need to know when the deck is flush or reduced in high cards and you can elevate your wager when the expectation is in your favour.

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

When gambling on 21 over the longer term card counting will aid in shifting the expectation in your favor by approx 2 percent.
