[00:02] all the House Hangover stuff, the blackjack team from the movie 21, or just because, today we'll show you a good card counting tactic and give you a few tips you can learn from the pros.
[00:15] pros. [Music] card counting is completely legal. It's not cheating and it's not a crime.
[00:27] However, if you were to become a casino owner, you would n't want to give away your money, would
[00:51] very thoroughly. And even though it's legal, you'd better not get caught. But we're an educational channel here, and we're appealing to your common sense. But what exactly is card counting?
[01:05] last video, but we said you'll still lose in most cases. But there is a way to win.  Let's say a lot of good cards are drawn for you, and you know that beforehand. Would you bet much more,
[01:20] or would you then cash in big? [Music] That's exactly what you can do. When counting cards, you obviously don't know what's coming next; it's random. But
[01:34] logically, if there are still many good cards in the deck, the probability is higher that one of them will actually be drawn. If there are many probability of drawing a good card is lower. And that's what
[01:49] you find out by counting: how is the rest of the deck for you? It 's good for you if there are many high cards in the game. The dealer goes over 21 more often, and you're more likely to get a blackjack, where you
[02:02] get back twice as much as normal. Therefore, you should bet a lot if there are many high cards. If there are many low cards in the deck, you shouldn't bet as much. You can count whether there are many high or low cards in the deck.
[02:15] high or low cards in the deck. are in the deck? Obviously, if you could just but that's practically impossible in a casino.  It's impossible to count cards that fast, especially since it's so
[02:30] loud. So, we'll show you the most common and easiest way to count cards: the so-called high-low method. The name comes from dividing the cards into high, low, and
[02:44] middle cards. Each group gets a different value: high cards are worth -1 (all face cards, 1, and ace); middle cards are worth zero (7, middle cards are worth zero (7, 8, and 1); and low cards are
[02:59] worth one (everything from 1 to 6). The trick is this: first, you set a standard bet, let's say €10. As soon as the dealer completely reshuffles and deals, you start counting. Do n't worry, you only have to add 1, subtract 1,
[03:15] or add nothing at all, but for each card dealt, you start at zero. Let's say these are the cards dealt after the first round. The player on the right busted, but we're interested in card
[03:30] counting. Here's what you do: the 6 counts as +1, the 7 is the 00, and the Jack is a minimum of -1. With high-low, this adds up to 0. For you, the 2 counts as +1, the King as -1, and the 8 as 0. So, in total,
[03:47] you also get zero. Using the "how" method, the player on the left has -1 for drawing cards with the 9 and 10, which count as 0, and -1 for the 10. The dealer has the Jack and Queen, so -2. If it's going too fast, click pause, but remember, in real
[04:03] pause while dealing either. The total card target value is -3. Great, now you have a number. But what good is that to you? How can you tell from this number whether the deck is good or bad? You now need the number of cards
[04:17] still in the deck. You have to estimate this. The best way is to roughly count the played cards and subtract that from the total of six decks. In this case, it's not so difficult. At the beginning, there are six decks, so there are
[04:31] still over five complete decks left. Now, take the number you counted, divide it by the remaining decks. So, -3 as the card count value, divided by the five complete decks still left. The result is
[04:44] called "true." The true count determines your bet; the higher the number, the more you bet. Anything below zero is extremely bad for you because many high cards will already be
[04:58] out. In that case, you simply bet your standard stake above the higher number. You follow the table here to determine how many you want to bet. For example, if your true count is plus 3, you bet eight times your standard stake (in
[05:11] our example, €80).  If you always bet as much, count correctly, and play like in the last video, then your chances are good that you'll go home with a profit at the end of the casino evening. But of course, that's just
[05:25] probability. To make a lot of money, you also need want to convince anyone to try this, otherwise we'd be wishing you "too too" right now! So much for card counting.
[05:39] You often hear about a roulette trick that can make you a lot of cash. Whether it right. Write in the comments where you first heard about card counting in blackjack— from a movie? If so, which one? Or did you just hear about it
[05:52] curious why people click on this. So, go for it and click on this. So, go for it and have a good one! Bye for now!
