If you love the blast and adventure of an excellent card game and the anticipation of winning and earning some cash with the odds in your favor, playing vingt-et-un is for you.

So, how can you beat the dealer?

Quite simply when betting on 21 you are studying the risks and probabilities of the cards in relation to:

1. What your hand is

2. What cards should come from the deck

When enjoying 21 there is statistically a best way to play each hand and this is called basic strategy. If you add card counting that helps you anticipate the odds of cards being dealt from the deck, then you are able to boost your bet amount when the odds are in your favor and decrease them when the edge is not.

You’re only going to succeed at under half the hands you gamble on, so it is important that you adjust bet size when the risks are in your favor.

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

Basic strategy and card counting

Since mathematicians and scientists have been investigating 21 all kinds of complicated schemes have been developed, including "counting cards" but although the idea is complicated card counting is actually straightforward when you bet on twenty-one.

If when playing 21 you card count effectively (even if the game uses more than one deck), you can alter the odds to your favour.

Twenty-one Basic Strategy

Vingt-et-un basic strategy is centered around a simple system of how you wager depending upon the hand you receive and is statistically the strongest hand to use while not card counting. It tells you when playing 21 when you need to take another card or stand.

It is very simple to do and is before long memorized and until then you can find complimentary cards on the internet

Using it when you bet on chemin de fer will bring down the casino’s odds advantage to near to zero.

Card counting getting the expectation in your favor

Card counting works and players use a card counting plan 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 casino because they help them make winning totals on his hands when he is stiff (has a 12, thirteen, 14, fifteen, or sixteen total on their 1st two cards).

In casino 21, you can stand on your stiffs if you choose to, but the house cannot.

The casino has no choice to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of wagering on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the deck is in high cards that will bust him.

The high cards favour the player because they may break the dealer when he hits her stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.

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

You don’t have to count the numbers of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the casino.

You simply need to know when the shoe is loaded or reduced in high cards and you can up your bet when the expectation is in your favor.

This is a basic breakdown of how card-counting schemes work, but gives you an insight into why the logic works.

When gambling on blackjack over an extended time card counting will aid in changing the edge in your favour by to around 2%.
