  • hey great video, not sure if youve answered this yet but why dont you start the count with the first cards laid down? since theyve been played, wouldnt it effect the deck(s) and what cards would come next?

  • @69hockeyman69 We count the first two cards to work less. Why count a players hand twice? It also looks odd to the casino pit when our heads are moving around the table twice. That would set off bells and bring heat.

  • Pretty good explination, only prob i have is this strategy seems to easy to get caught counting.. whats your stategy against that?

  • @DMOSSA7X It is normal to observe blackjack games without betting. The trick is not to overstay your welcome in the casino, so stay mobile. If in Las Vegas, go to casino to casino to play under the radar.

  • @Moviemakerjjcasino Hi Bro, I hope you can guide me along, I was playing online with a live dealer. they are using 8 decks, after few rounds of games, the running count reached about 20. true count 2-3. but i kept losing 5-6 bets in a row, please advise why the banker still manage to comes out as winner for so many rounds :( thanks for ur time in advance.

  • @fishingkakis Online casino games are rigged to lose in my opinion. Are the players allowed to view all the cards when new decks are introduced into the online game with that live dealer? If not, how do you know if some aces and tens are missing? Go to a brick and mortar casino to play and report back here, Bro.

  • Dude you didnt hit that soft 15 against the dealers 2 whats up with that

  • I had commented on this video a while ago (over a year i think). I've used your count system, but I've also juggled other systems to test out how they work. Currently I'm using the Revere Point Count. It gives me a 99% betting correlation and allows me to side count the Aces. It's a bit more advanced than the Hi-Lo, but I seem to have no problem with it. Have you ever used this counting system before? (AC now uses auto card shuffler)

    Revere Point Count:

    Aces/10s = -2

    2 = 1

    3-6 = 2

    7 = 1

    8-9 = 0

see all

  • Do you keep a separate count on aces?

  • You didn't figure in the dealer's face up king at around 2:15.  Should have been minus 4 at the end of that, right?

  • LOL FUNNY MUSIC...

  • @Hylianhero85 I've never heard of that method of counting cards, it seem to work well?? I've always done the hi-lo method, and it seemed to give me maybe a 10% advantage over the house... if that... still never guaranteed to make me win... kinda blows

  • So I noticed you don't do the 2-6 = +1 7-9=0 10-A = -1 count... why is your way better ? I mean what advantages are their with your card counting system compared to the one that everybody knows? And, do u play your hand according to the count?  Say the deck is -7... u have a 7 and a 4.. so u have an Elleven, do u Not double because the deck is soft? You're going against a bust card... say dealer has 6 showing... ?

  • @Hylianhero85 The other counting system with a 99% betting correlation is Wong's Halves.

    2 +.5

    3,4 +1

    5 +1.5

    6 +1

    7 +.5

    9 -.5

    10,A -1

    It is a little harder because of the third level of points, but without the ace side count it is somewhat easier generally speaking.

    The 10 count in this video is ace neutral, making it good for single and double deck because of playing efficiency, but actually loses to hi-lo in a shoe game due to lower BC.
