Recently been looking a lot at card counting and thought I would give a try for fun.
Was wondering what people thought was a nice easy method for a 'newbie', although something that does actually work. Maybe something I could read for 20 minutes, understand and then start practicing.
Someone told me of a method where you use seven as a zero then all card down from 7 are +1, +2.... so on, till you have your 2 which is plus 5 and the opposite way with all the cards up are minus, 8 is -1, 9 is -2 and all face cards are minus 3. This gives you a total of 60 either way, however it doesnt work if you use aces. the higher the count, the more chance of winning! I've also seen one with something like 6,7,8 are all 0. 2,3,4,5 are all +1 and 9 with all face cards are 10, or something along those lines with the same rule. higher count = more win chance. finally divide running count by number of decks left to give a true count.
I've had a little look on the site but cant find what im looking for.
Just want a method name and maybe a link and ill let you all know how it goes!
thanks,
