(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Many of you most likely heard of this before. If you learn this pretty well, you can win a lot of money in BlackJack. But you have to be pretty quick at adding and thinking as the dealer moves fast. Also you have to be pretty chill just winning hand after hand and not stare at the cards and count with your mouth. So watch the movie, "21" and learn well :p.
Remember that counting cards is not illegal, it's just frowned upon.

Alright, well here goes, I'll explain the best I can with out having you read the whole thing on Wiki.

I will be talking about using the Hi-Lo system.
Basically every card has a value of either +1 -1 or 0.
Cards 2-6 are +1
Cards 7-9 are 0.
Cards 10-A are -1.
Here is a picture.

Just look at Hi-Lo for now :p.

Alright, so now might be the hardest part to understand.
There is a thing called the card count, which is just the count of the cards you see on the table.
So let's say 3 people and the dealer.
You got a 4, 8.
Other person, 5.
Other person, 10.
Dealer K.
The count would be zero.
What I do is look for the +1's 1st... but do whatever is better for you.
So basically when the low cards are out there and the count is high, you have a great chance at getting a high card.
Note that in casinos there are many decks at the table in motion at all times.
Umm, that's pretty much it from me.
Each deck count will always turn out to be zero.
So when you practice you can know the last card almost.

Any questions, post here xD.

Erm, come again please?

EDIT:

I've never played poker in my life, I'm 15 , I have no idea what this is about And I love the film 21 and the Hangover

And counting cards shouldn't be illegal or even frowned upon, it shows that you're very smart in order to do it :/

I've Always Used The Zen Count :/

Your talking about the NGU Blackjack there is your problem :rolleyes:..
TP: Very nice thread jon man, i'm sure this will come in handy :p

It's not illegal, just frowned upon, like masturbating on an air-plane.
Uhh, I'm pretty sure that's illegal too.
Yeah, only after 9/11, where everyone got all touchy. Thank you, Bin Laden

I love that film. <3

Anyways, great post Jon.

Nice. Counting cards can be hard to learn but it usually pays off in the end if you don't get caught.

This is one of the best threads I've seen in awhile :y:

ha ha ha in time no1 will be posting in this thread everyone will be serving jail time lol

I remember when that movie 21 came out with Kevin Spacey, based on a true story, I tried so hard to learn how to count cards. I even researched it on the internet and tried to do it while playing black jack with my boys. But I never could get it right it takes way too much concentration. For a person who is usually high off weed or drunk when I am at the casinos too much concentration is the last thing I can or able to try to do.

You also need to start out at a table that has a completely new game at hand or else you are screwed if you try counting cards.
