Beating Blackjack

Beating the game of Blackjack is a lot easier then you might think. With a some practice and a little patience you can beat the game of blackjack.

Card Value and Card Count

Step one you need to learn how to count cards, don’t fret this is very simple to do! Any card 2-6 you gets a value of +1, 7-9’s has a value of 0 and 10-A’s is given a value of -1. Low valued cards (2-6) are good for the casino, high valued cards 10-A are good for the player and 7-9 is neutral.

Card counting works like this, when the dealer is dealing look at all of the cards that get dealt and in your mind start adding a subtracting your 1’s and -1’s. The easiest way to do this quickly is to pay attention to the second card that is dealt out to everyone, for instinse if there is a 10 and a 3 they cancel each other out and the total is 0. Example: Seat #1 has 2 and 7, seat #2 has J and 4, seat #3 has 10 and 8, seat #4 has 3 and 4 and the dealer and a Q showing. Do you know what the count is? Seat #1 has +1, seat #2 has 0, seat #3 has -1, seat #4 has 2 and the dealer has -1. The running count is +1.

The higher the running count or the further in the “+” values the more money you should bet because the game has shifted in your favor. Remember the more 10’s-A’s in the deck the better odds you will win, the more 2’s-6’s in the deck the odds move to the house. So if the running count starts to reach 10 or more than you need to start adjusting your bet, bet more money per hand.

Betting Size and Bankroll

Your betting unit should be at most 1/1000 of your bankroll.
Your bankroll is how much money you are willing to lose without going crazy.
For each session your money on hand should be at least 32 betting units. Example: If you want to bet $10 a hand, you should bring as least $320.
If you lose half your bankroll, then drop your betting units by half.
If you win half your bankroll (total $480) then raise your betting units 1 ½ times (to $25).
By constantly adjusting your betting unit, you will never go broke, and your bankroll will increase in the long run.

Maximum Bet

Your maximum bet should be at least 4 times your betting unit. For example, your maximum be would be $40.
Never bet more than ¼ of the money on you, on one round, because you want to have enough money to split and double down if the option becomes available to you.

Optimal Betting

Keep a Running Count.
Approximate the number of decks remaining.
Divide the Running Count by the number of decks remaining; this is called the True Count. If your Running Count is 8 and there is 2 decks left, then your True Count is 4.
Subtract 1 from the True Count to determine how many units to bet. In this example you will bet 3 units; multiply the number of units to bet (3 in this example) by your betting unit ($10), you will bet $30 on this hand.
Play two hands and bet that amount ($30) per hand; if you are the only player at the table, or you can only play one hand, bet 25% more on one hand.

If your running count is less than 0, bet as little as you can without drawing too much attention to your bet, sit out if you can.

If you take some time and practice these strategies before you sit down at that Blackjack table in the casino you will walk away a winner. Practice at home with your friends and family. Take a deck of cards and practice counting; if you count out a whole deck you should have 0 when you are done. Try it, its great practice. Good luck and have fun!
