True story: the first week of counting through my deck of cards (a used deck from a casino) was really frustrating. It would always come out uneven…until I discovered there was an extra “5” in the deck. 😅
im recently getting into card counting, i bought 3 poker decks to start practicing at home, i have been at a casino twice playing BJ, im currenlty down by only 100 mex pesos, this first two times i went was to experience a bit at irl BJ, i took note of a couple of things, and i will be practicing at home with music and talk show like podcast just to create ambient noice but i have to focus as well on the topic of the podcast thats to follow up with the irl conversation of other player and dont be al serious seeming that i am card counting
Really enjoying the videos and content so far, but I do have a question. When the casino gets down to the deck boot during the round how do they continue that round if they hit it before finishing the card dealing around the table? I've been practicing with a few family members on a 2 deck setup with a joker flipped in the deck as the boot.
Cheers for this, I've been looking for "learn to count cards online" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Tonvelyn Xiylijah Trick - (just google it )? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for learning how to make fast money using this lotto system without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate finally got great success with it.
You know I've been thinking about doing this for years, but just the thought of going back into a casino makes me want to be sick. This can really work people, go for it. Have fun. 😊
Is it important that I leave the table when the true count is negative no matter how close it is to zero? Or is there a negative true count when it is okay to bet the minimum of your bet spread? I ask because you should expect the true count to be negative half the time, making it a lot of times you would have to leave.
I’m sorry but your iPad app is just too buggy. It was wrecking my confidence until I finally figured it out. I’m sure your bootcamps are terrific, but you just aren’t a software company. I appreciate you mentioning the CV suite of products, it takes a lot of integrity to do that. Maybe I’ll see you at a bootcamp someday soon
At 6:30 notice several crosses on wall over dealers right shoulder. First glance I thought it was a home set up since Colin trained the “church team”. But it looks like a real casino. , I wonder where it was. Perhaps New Orleans or French Canada ?
I honestly feel like every time I try to keep a count it’s just super negative and it makes me start to feel like I’m just messing the count up I start to think how can it be this negative and I’m still getting a bunch of face cards
@@marktorres8766 most tables are 4 6 or 8 deck. 6 being the norm. Occasionally you can find a 2 deck. For example my local casino must have 40 black jack tables and only one is a two deck table.
Well, yes it seems there are more negative shoe counts then positive. Yes, this is real in live play. I don't know why? However, after hundreds of hours of play the math works it out to be slightly more positive. That's the rub, hundreds of hours! The real challenge is surviving negative counts and winning during those negative counts. So put together the 5 parts of counting cards. The count, true count conversion, basic strategy, deviations, bet management. Sounds hard, but, it's all very easy when you master them all. It took me 350 hours of live play to make it work! Most people spend more time than that commuting to work in a few months than that.
Mr Jones, even if you know how to count cards and good in basic strategy and deviations if the good cards or high cards goes to the dealer when they are dealt you will still lose
If you can speak to it, what do you think of the Wizard of Odds blackjack simulator and the suggestions it makes? I use it as a sort of ‘best free alternative’ method of just practicing keeping a count while managing a chip stack in a game situation, and I typically keep your H17 deviations chart on hand for the tricky deviations I still have yet to learn, but there are often suggestions that run counter to your chart. I understand WoO to be very mathematically reliable, but I question the significance of noting down and learning all of the deviations it suggests when many of them boil down to an EV difference of a couple thousandths.
Sure, the most notable difference is they're providing charts based on exactly what game you're playing. Our charts are intentionally a melding of everything to provide the most coverage and EV with one chart, rather than learning half a dozen separate ones for each variation (Single, 2D, 4D, 6D, 8D, S17, H17) Then, we cover the most valuable deviations in the specific H17 and S17 deviation charts. Given those differences, areas where the math is very close can create different suggestions.
Love your videos man! What would you say to someone who doesn’t go often but loves the game and a bankroll usually is 3-5 hundred? It’s an amount I don’t mind losing when I go especially just for practice sake. Is it too low?
Yeah don't be afraid to bet it all, but always make sure you have enough to cover at least 1 split+double (2 extra bets behind). I've seen too many videos and spots where people don't even have enough money to split or double down even once. Really dumb, they would of been better off playing baccarat!
EricSmyth14 yeah I know what you mean I always try to stay able to bet my bet at least 4 times, one time I got 8s and split the max at Harrahs which was 4 total hands and couldn’t double the one 11 I got smh
@@865354hayden My friend is a poker player and bet his last 5k when drunk. Got AA and couldn't split at all. He went to get a cash advance and it was going to be 20 minutes. Then out of frustration he came back to the table and hit. Of course he got a ten and the dealer drew out 20. Ouch.
Thoughts on online LIVE blackjack? They have 3 to 2 with DAS and 1-50 spread and back counting allowed. Only problem is shallow penn. But is it still worth it??? (Please answer me)
Question: The problem I have is once I am flipping over cards at the rate of one deck in thirty seconds, by the time I can say M1 or M2 in my head for a negative count, the next card is already flipped over and I get behind and I can screw up the count. Is there a trick for that?
Some people start their count at 20 or 30, then add or subtract from there. That way you're always positive. So for example if you start at 30 and your count is 17, then the running count is -13.
the i-phone app is also now available on android and is WELL worth the $5 asked. only been using it for a week but already noticing a vast difference in my game
Good day Colin. Maybe I'm not hearing your numbers properly, however, 6 figures in 15 years isn't much money at all, correct? The break down is only like $67K max per year. Am I hearing something wrong?
Hullo from Singapore ! 3+ questions. When do I actually start betting ? What do I actually do with the running count ?The counting will accurately predict the next card and how or at what value ?
What's the lowest starting bankroll you've ever heard? Normally I'd be willing to lose $100 every 6 months I attempt to count cards. Unfortunately, nowadays because of COVID-19, minimum bets are $15.
FunAndGames Ok, but I guess you have a a perfect game, basic strategy, card counting, betting & playing deviations. Just keep putting in the hours and keep the risk low and you should break through. Are you an apprentice?
@@kimlemrini1863 No, I can't afford it. Maybe my game isn't good enough. I always thought it was. I have always won in the past. All the other casinos I have ever played thought it was good enough to back me off. Hell, 3 weeks ago I got backed off. I don't know. There's a lot of doubt in my mind now. It's a tough time for me. There's no guarantee I will make it back either. The chances of me running as bad as I did are the same. With expenses I have to pay, and the limited funds I might not be able to cover the expenses unless I do something drastic. Things are dark.
Honest question: It seems that most casinos burn so many cards... that is to say in a two-deck game they might actually deal about 70 cards of the 104 in the shoe. Doesn't that make counting virtually impossible?
That's called deck penetration and it doesn't make it impossible but most counters probably wouldn't play a game where they deal less than 67% of cards
I thought “catching errors “ was bogus because I thought we were only looking for dealer mistakes which is the only thing in reality that is worth checking. And here is an “error” we don’t normally make even out here in Hendertucky and that is splitting tens. Ok I caught the payout error by d,r on 2nd hand and that is exactly the sort of error cuz I have learned from my own tough experience that dealers ever seem to make: making errors that always favor the house. You didn’t tell us at the beginning to watch out for all errors. Splitting tens is definitely an error if you are following basic strategy. You did that at least twice. Also taking ins EVER is considered BS error did it once noon but second time was justified and you didn’t 333take it. Stood on 12 vs 3 in viol of basic but not TC. So what’s the point. No info about # decks in play zilch. ❤😊🎉😢😮😊
You split 10’s and you take insurance at +3 true count or higher. Number of decks doesn’t matter, take the running count and divide by the decks remaining for the true count and play accordingly. BS only shrinks the house edge, but the house still has an edge. Counting is what puts the odds in your favor.
Yes, the app is $5 (USD). However, how bout you update the features of your app, like IDK.... build in these techniques? There isnt even a timer available to track your progress. How bout using some data and so you can compare your counting speed/accuracy vs other user? It's a shame you guys have abandoned improving the app.
@@Blackjackapprenticeship In addition to more progress metrics, the more the app can simulate table play (add simulated players?) WITH all the CC data as a HUD, the better IMO. Adding EV/AV trackers with bet spread & ROR calc would be also be very cool (assuming you guys wont be concerned about gutting your online membership -I would argue, app revenue generation has way more potential vs web subscription). Playing style profiles would also be cool. Id like to compare perfect play against a mix of my own variations (ie, gambler's fallacy, a way to test my predictive self-dellusion vs the maths). Adding a "competitive" player feature, ie, ranking single bankroll performance, would also make the app a very compelling use feature. Toggling the "Strategy Error" would be a nice to have -real-time on/off with an error tracker. Love the app cause I can see how it can do so much more! With your guys experience as CC, instructors & TH-cam, it could easily be the only go-to app for BJ
Encouraging more counters is only going to force Casinos to develop better anti-couting techniques, like more frequent deck shuffles. You are kind of shooting yourself in the foot and jeapodising your career. If I ran a Casino I'd insist on mid deck shuffles. Yeah, it takes a second or two but it will save my Casino millions of dollars.
Well, the problem is that you need to compete with other casinos, and players don't like frequent shuffles, so if you shuffle too often, players will just go elsewhere. Besides, the problem of card counters is probably waaaay overblown; very few people can actually count cards successfully and make a good amount of money doing it. Few people even play perfect basic strategy, let alone count cards successfully.
