[00:01] an interesting video as this is sort of repurposed footage. I was originally going to film 10 shoes of double deck blackjack. Um, however, I got really sick this week and um, because of that, you don't want to see my ugly face on [00:15] um, these videos and I am just going to be kind of counting out loud instead of doing what I was doing originally in this video. Um, I think it might be helpful for you to hear what's going on in my head as um kind of I watch this [00:30] in my head as um kind of I watch this video back and count through this um as we play. All right, I'm going to play kind of the original sound here as to what was happening in this video so you can listen to that and then when um it [00:44] comes to the actual counting, I will kind of jump back in and explain what I'm doing today. I'm also going to be playing [music] in two spots the entire you should go from one spot to two spots, only play two spots, what's going [00:57] is going to be a good video where we're going to be playing two spots the whole with another non-card counter over here. I have $10,000 for you. I'll get shove and I'll be right back with you to explain the bet spread. [01:11] explain the bet spread. [music] off right around half a deck, maybe slightly more each time. Okay. So, you [01:24] can check that out. That's what our penetration looks like. Um, the best way we're going to be using, we're going to say this is a minimum table of $50. So, need 50 in both of those. That's going to be our minimum bet. Anytime the true [01:37] count rises, uh, we are going to be betting that many $100 chips in two true one, which is one $100 chip in two spots. A true two would be two $200 [01:49] chips or two $100 chips in two spots. I said that backwards. All the way up to a said that backwards. All the way up to a true five, which is two $500 chips. Um, like this. All right. So, uh, that said, um, the numbers for this I'll pop here [02:04] apprentichip. If you haven't used Blackjack apprentichip yet and you're taking this blackjack thing seriously, this card counting thing seriously, I don't know what you're doing. All right. They are the best um because not only [02:16] but you can also take it on your phone. They're the easiest app to use um to input bed spreads on the go. Um a [music] lot of times I'll pop into the spread if there's a condition or a rule or something that's slightly different [02:30] and I get my exact EV and risk of ruin right there. So, um if you're videos of Blackjack apprenticeship in the pinned comment of this video. All right, that's it. I have our minimum bet of $50 in two spots right here. Throw a [02:46] burn card in our discard tray like this. All right. So, I am going to be counting you're going to be hearing what I am thinking in my head as the cards are dealt. Um, again, this might be helpful for you to kind of know when to count [03:01] usually wait until the second card drops. Right now 0 D1 D2 drops. Right now 0 D1 D2 D1 [03:17] counts negative. I'm betting the minimum. [03:31] D1 zero 1 zero one one [03:53] zero okay count zero I'm betting the minimum [04:05] Those cancel. So, I'm still at one. Zero. One. Two. Two. One. Nice. [04:33] 0 one one two one. deck in there yet, so I'm probably going to still bet the minimum. [04:47] to still bet the minimum. Yep. [05:03] They count as D3. So again, betting the minimum. Hopefully we can raise our bets minimum. Hopefully we can raise our bets soon. Counts at D3. Always go back to soon. Counts at D3. Always go back to the running counts. [05:23] D4. D5. Those cancel. Nice. D6 Anything negative or bad in the minimum. [05:36] D7. D65. D6. D5. the seven o. [05:54] if we are correct. And I'm going to let my self count this back up for us. count is correct, this plus the burn card will be the opposite of what we [06:09] have. So, let's count it out. Here we have zero 1 2 1 2 1 2 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 5 [06:22] 6 7 8 7 and seven. This was plus seven. So we need a count of minus 7, which is what I should have been correct because of that. We'll get these shuffled up for [06:37] that. We'll get these shuffled up for round two. [06:50] Minimum bet of $50 in two spots. Burn card. Here comes round two. Let's count. second card drops. Right now we have one zero. Those cancel and back to one with the dealers card. Everything stands and back to zero. [07:08] counts at zero. So, we'll still bet the minimum. [07:25] So, zero, one, two, three, four. Still three. Okay. Three divided by two decks left is [07:37] a true one and a half. So we'll bet we'll round down to one, which is $100. Stacking those running counts at three, two, one, two, one. [07:55] Nice. Still one. [08:20] zero D1 still zero okay this will be the minimum coming up counts at zero [08:59] D6, [snorts] D6, D5. [09:19] going into my head right now. Going on. There we go. Okay. Counts at D5. This will be negative or be uh the minimum since it is negative. Next time [09:31] it's a lot easier if you're just the player than to deal as well. Comes to D5, D6, D7, D8, D7, [09:50] D8, D9. Super negative. Still minimum bets. [10:04] Still D9 D10 D9 [10:16] still D9 super negative. [10:28] 9. Wow. Once again, super negative. So, let's count this up. Just see how bad it let's count this up. Just see how bad it is. Here we have zero D1 0 1 0 1 2 3 2 3 [10:40] is. Here we have zero D1 0 1 0 1 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 4 3 4 5 2 3 2 3 4 3 4 5 4 5 6 7 8 and nine. Yeah, this was plus nine. I had Oh, no. I didn't write down. I also [10:53] had minus 9. I'm an idiot. There we go. I'll write it down next time. All right. I also had minus 9 in my head. So, all right. All right, get the shovel up for right. All right, get the shovel up for round number three. [11:19] of 50 in two spots. Here comes round three. Let's count. All right, round three. Let's try it. We have one, two, one, zero, D1. [11:37] Still D1. D2 [11:51] D1 0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D3 D2 D1 [12:05] counts negative. So we're going to bet the minimum again. [12:18] D1 D2 D1 zero zero and too many counts at zero [12:38] and I'm about the minimum of 50 in two spots. Counting zero. [12:50] three, four. deck and a half. It's going to be a true two. [13:35] Okay, counts negative. So, we'll bet the minimum [13:50] Going to take insurance here as the true count's above at two and a half. What's that? Three, two, What's that? Three, two, one. [14:06] zero D1. Oh no. the minimum minus one. Uh D2 D3 [14:24] D2. I don't know what I was doing there. Counts at D2. D1 zero. [14:47] All right, let's count it up. We've got D1, D2, D1, D2, D3, D4, D3, D4, D5, 4, D1, D2, D1, D2, D3, D4, D3, D4, D5, 4, D3, D2, D1, D2, D3, D2, D1, D2, D3, D2, [14:59] D1, and zero. So, since this was zero, the opposite is also zero to get us back to zero, which is what I had. So, again, I think our bets were right. All right, round four coming up. [15:22] count. All right, round four. Counting now. We have 0 D1 01 [sighs] 0 D1 [15:44] count as negative. this. We're going to bet the table minimum bet the table minimum D2 D 1 0 D1 0 1 2 1 0 [17:26] still a minimum. D5 E6. [17:47] D1 zero. [18:03] Okay, let's count this up. See what we have. We have zero d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 d6 d5 have. We have zero d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 d6 d5 d4 d5 d4 d3 d2 d3 d2 d1 zero d1 d2 d1 d2 [18:16] d4 d5 d4 d3 d2 d3 d2 d1 zero d1 d2 d1 d2 d3 d2 d1 0 d1 0 1 0 D1 0 1 and back to zero. So this was zero and again we also needed zero. All right, [18:28] again we also needed zero. All right, I'm going to do one more uh round five. [18:42] Minimum bet of 50 in two spots. Burn card. Round five. Ready? Let's count. All right, last round for this video. Counting now. We have one, zero, [19:00] negative. So, we're going to bet the minimum [19:13] 01 2 3 4 five. Nice high count. Six. five. Nice high count. Six. Still six. Seven. Eight. Still six. Seven. Eight. All right. Eight. Uh, divided by two [19:26] deck in the discard tray. So 8 divided by two of course is four. So we'll bet by two of course is four. So we'll bet 400 in two spots. [19:54] six and still six. One. One. Lost one. Six divided by Still not quite a half deck. So 6 divided by not quite a half deck. So 6 divided by two is three. [20:10] Five. Four. Five. Four. Nice. Five. Six. Nice bust with getting some low cards out there. Okay. Six divided by now there is a deck [20:26] and a half left to be played with a half deck in the discard tray. So that's going to be a true four. 6 divided by 1 and a half is four and a half is four 7 6 [20:39] 7 6 5 3 Good pushes there counts at three. So 3 / 1 and a half I am struggling is um two [21:04] count 3 2 1 0 D1 D2 D1 0. the count is zero. I like stacking up those black chips. [21:31] D1 D2 D1 D2 D3 D4 Again betting the minimum count is minus4 [22:06] right, that was the shoe we were waiting for. Had a nice high count there and one a bunch of black chips, which is way better than just playing greens. All right, let's count it up. See what we got. One, two, one, two, one, zero. One, [22:21] got. One, two, one, two, one, zero. One, two, three, four, three, four, three, two, three, four, three, four, three, two, three, two, one, two, three, two, three, and four. This was plus four. We need to [22:35] count at minus four. So, I think our counts were correct. All right, I'm going to pause it right there because um what I say next doesn't really apply to this video as I was going to originally do 10 shoes of double deck, but we're [22:47] because I got a little sick and wasn't able to film that second one. Um I thought maybe a voice over like I did here was maybe the best option for this where you're listening to what I am thinking in my head um as those cars are [23:02] let me know that down below in the comments or you can just hit the thumbs support the channel regardless. Um, otherwise until next time, this is A1 otherwise until next time, this is A1 Blackjack.
