If you like the thrill and excitement of a perfect card game and the elation of winning and earning some cash with the odds in your favour, gambling on vingt-et-un is for you.

So, how do you beat the casino?

Basically when playing chemin de fer you are watching the odds and chances of the cards in regard to:

1. The cards in your hand

2. What cards should be dealt from the deck

When enjoying blackjack there is mathematically a best way to play each hand and this is known as basic strategy. If you add card counting that helps you compute the chances of cards being dealt from the deck, then you are able to boost your wager amount when the edge is in your favor and lower them when they are not.

You are only going to succeed at under half the hands you wager on, so it is important that you adjust bet size when the risks are in your favour.

To do this when wagering on blackjack you should use basic strategy and card counting to succeed.

Basic tactics and counting cards

Since mathematicians and scientists have been investigating twenty-one all sorts of complex schemes have been developed, including but not limited to "counting cards" but although the idea is complex counting cards is all in all very easy when you wager on Blackjack.

If when betting on chemin de fer you card count correctly (even if the game uses more than one deck), you can tilt the edge to your favor.

Blackjack Basic Strategy

21 basic strategy is assembled around a simple approach of how you bet based upon the cards you receive and is statistically the strongest hand to play without counting cards. It informs you when playing 21 when you should take another card or hold.

It’s very simple to do and is quickly memorized and until then you can find complimentary guides on the net

Using it when you play vingt-et-un will bring down the casino’s expectations to near to zero.

Counting cards shifting the odds in your favour

Card counting works and players use a card counting scheme obtain an advantage over the gambling hall.

The reason for this is simple.

Low cards favor the house in blackjack and high cards favour the player.

Low cards favor the croupier because they help him make winning totals on their hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, or sixteen total on their initial two cards).

In casino 21, you can stand on your stiffs if you want to, but the dealer can’t.

The dealer has no decision to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of gambling on twenty-one require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how rich the shoe is in high cards that will bust her.

The high cards favor the gambler because they could break the croupier when she hits their stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.

Though blackjacks are, evenly dispersed between the croupier and the player, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the player has an edge.

You do not have to add up the numbers of each of the individual card to know when you have an edge over the croupier.

You only need to know when the deck is rich or poor in high cards and you can elevate your bet when the edge is in your favor.

This is a basic breakdown of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an understanding into why the logic works.

When playing chemin de fer over an extended time card counting will assist in shifting the edge in your favor by approx 2 percent.
