Card counting shifting the expectation in your favor
Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting scheme gain an edge over the gambling den.
The reason this is easy.
Low cards favor the dealer in vingt-et-un and high cards favor the gambler.
Low cards favour the casino because they help them acquire winning totals on his hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, 14, 15, or 16 total on his initial 2 cards).
In casino chemin de fer, you can stay on your stiffs if you want to, but the dealer cannot.
She has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of betting on 21 require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the deck is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favour the gambler because they may bust the dealer when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.
Though blackjacks are, equally distributed between the dealer and the player, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the gambler has an edge.
You do not have to add up the data of each of the individual card to know when you have an edge over the house.
You only need to know at what point the shoe is loaded or depleted in high cards and you can up your action when the edge is in your favour.
This is a basic account of why card-counting plans work, but gives you an insight into why the rationale works.
When betting on 21 over an extended term card counting will assist in altering the odds in your favor by to around two percent.
