In fact, it’s as complicated and complex as what you’d expect to see from a former MIT Blackjack Team member. But, if you’re serious about beating the house you can master this system with practice. Just watch this video several times, digest the information, and then start playing A SHIT TON of practice hands. It’ll take a little while, but you’ll pick up the system with practice.
In a single deck game there are 4 aces and 16 ten-value cards. You can get blackjack in one of two orders: 1) A ten-value card followed by an ace. 2) An ace followed by a ten-value card. If we add the probabilities of these two events, this will give us the odds of getting blackjack. Learn how the MIT Blackjack Team from the movie 21 beat the casinos for millions.

High cards 10, J, Q, K, A have a running count value of -1 because ‘as high cards are depleted from the game, player advantage goes down’. On the flip side, cards 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are worth a value of +1 because as the low cards are burnt from the decks there are fewer of them in action to hurt the player. Cards 7, 8, and 9 have a neutral count value or no value at all…What does all of this mean for you as the player? You’ll have to watch the video to find out.
