Card counting

One of the unique aspects of blackjack is that players can get some advantage over casino odds if they use a card counting technique. This contributed to the growth of prestige and popularity of this game among casino visitors from all over the world.
The number of cards is based on the fact that when counting the outgoing cards, the player can know which cards are still in play, and then make the right decision when setting the amount of their bets. regarding other important issues related to the game.


In fact, counting cards helps the player to know whether there are more valuable or less valuable cards in the deck. This affects the game in two ways:
Since the dealer is forced to make a HIT (take a card) when he reaches 17, decks with lower cards increase their chances of winning, while those with more expensive cards increase their chances of BUSTING, that is, exceeding 21, and this will result in the loss of a hand.
When your turn comes, the player will behave differently if there are cards with low or high value in the deck. For example: being a hand of 16, if the player knows that there are more high-value cards in the deck, he may decide not to take more cards, that is, to stay in the STAND or stand, even if it is not the best hand for him. However, if you know that there are more low-value cards in the deck, you may decide to take a card, that is, make a HIT.
Since card counting is very useful for experienced players, casinos around the world have done their best to combat this technique, but without much success. This technique and the battle by casinos to eradicate it have also been the subject of numerous Hollywood films, the most famous being "21" and "rain Man" (known in Spain as "When brothers meet").
