Card counting getting the expectation in your favour
Card counting works and players use a card counting scheme obtain an edge over the gambling hall.
The reason this is simple.
Low cards favor the house in chemin de fer and high cards favour the gambler.
Low cards favour the house because they help her acquire winning totals on their hands when she is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, 15, or sixteen total on his first 2 cards).
In casino 21, you can hold on your stiffs if you want to, but the casino cannot.
The casino has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of playing blackjack require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the shoe is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favour the player because they could break the croupier when he hits her stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the player.
Although blackjacks are, evenly distributed between the house 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 count the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the casino.
You just need to know at what point the deck is rich or poor in high cards and you can increase your bet when the odds are in your favor.
This is a simple commentary of why card-counting plans work, but gives you an understanding into why the logic works.
When betting on chemin de fer over an extended time card counting will aid in changing the expectation in your favour by approx two percent.
