Our graduate members have taken millions of dollars from casinos. Card counting works when you master & execute it flawlessly — but mastering it is hard work. Our award-winning documentary (featured on The New York Times, CNN, etc.) chronicles some of the ups and downs of card counting. How does blackjack card counting work? Card counting is a system for tracking the probability of receiving cards that are favorable to you, during the course of a game. When using the Wong Halves counting method, the 3, 4, and 6 cards are valued at +1, the 2 and 7 cards are valued as +0.5, and the 5 is worth +1.5. All 8s are 0, 9 is valued at -0.5, and all Ace and face cards are valued as -1. If you're having a hard time counting with fractions, double each value for a simplified strategy. Yes, you can count cards playing blackjack online. Although, most online casinos use software that shuffles the cards every time a new hand is dealt, making it a bit tricky. There are some programs.
