Card counting getting the expectation in your favour
Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting system achieve an edge over the gambling den.
The reasoning behind this is simple.
Low cards favour the house in 21 and high cards favor the gambler.
Low cards favour the house because they aid her make winning totals on his hands when she is stiff (has a 12, 13, fourteen, 15, or 16 total on her first two cards).
In casino chemin de fer, you can stand on your stiffs if you choose to, but the casino cannot.
She has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of playing blackjack require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favor the gambler because they might break the house when he hits his stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.
Despite the fact blackjacks are, evenly distributed between the casino and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when he gets a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.
You do not have to tally the numbers of each of the individual card to know when you have an edge over the croupier.
You only need to know at what point the deck is flush or depleted in high cards and you can elevate your bet when the odds are in your favor.
This is a basic commentary of why card-counting systems work, but gives you an insight into how the rationale works.
When playing chemin de fer over the longer term card counting will aid in altering the expectation in your favour by approximately 2%.
