Just as the post above says… The number of spots in play, plus the number of rounds dealt, equals six. If three spots are in play, they will be dealt three hands between shuffles. If there are four spots in play, they will get two hands between shuffles.
Playin 8 deck shoes in Canada. Use an app on my phone that tracks the count by using volume up and down. Dont have to pull my phone out for anything. Vibrates when conditions are suitable for a big bet. App keeps a running count and true count as it counts down the cards. Phone screen looks blank while program runs
This app would be illegal in the US, and is likely illegal in Canada too. Besides, card counting is not rocket science. Just use your brain, leave your phone alone, and avoid legal trouble.
I use another app for baccarat aswell and run it as I bet behind people when conditions are ideal. App keeps a running tally of cards played with suggested play for next deal. Usually I wait for 2 or 3 losses in a row before I wager. Extremely lucrative and very accurate.
A baccarat app is worse than useless. You cannot beat baccarat by counting cards, and anyone who tells you otherwise doesn’t know what they are talking about. Go read Peter Griffin’s analysis of the topic.
And if you think that waiting for 2 or 3 losses before betting is “extremely lucrative and very accurate”, you have some expensive lessons coming your way.
Actually, given your two posts today, I would bet that you are the developer of these snake-oil apps. Don’t bother touting them here. We know better.
hello,
i have a question.
when I play how Blackjack Strategy Trainer I win about 80%
but in real play with the same rule and strategy I lose.
Can you explain?
ขอบคุณ

Hi Blackjack, great put down! You mentioned playing in Asia. Is there any place on that continent where one can still find non-CSM games – manual shoe with manual or automated (not CSM) shuffle? Macau and Genting (Malaysia) gave up manual shoes in a complete surrender to CSM several years ago. (And, further,Genting has only 4 BJ tables left outside VIP in a major shift from BJ to Pontoon).
Don’t know if Korea and Philippines have made a similar switch. I bet newbie Singapore too follows Malaysia’s lead as Genting is from there and Sands are the ones who first proliferated CSM as a standard in Macau.
Back to Macau: everyone fell in line with Sands and their CSMs, even the former monopoly casinos of Stanley Ho – by what almost looks like tacit cartel-like agreement. Not even one of those proliferating casinos seems to have cared/dared to break to differentiate themselves! Maybe because the main custom switched from the more knowledgeable Hong Konger regulars over the weekend to a constant churn of one-off raw Mainlanders any day of the week).Caveat – don’t know about those hidden away VVIP rooms though.
So any list of still manual shoe blackjack casinos in Asia that you know of will be much appreciated.
Hey Blackjohn, Fallsview outside of the VIP room does have quite a few automatic shuffling machines (ASM not CSM) but manual-shoe games – like the ones Ken mentions about the US. Check the table games hall at the far end from the VIP room. Unlike the fully manual tables in VIP they are not hand shuffle, but not CSM either. The machine merely has the role of automatically shuffling the stack vertically instead of the dealer doing it the manual way.. The rest is the same as a manual game – cut, reshuffle card, loading in the empty shoe – except it’s an 8-decker (VIP room fully manual tables are 6 decks). The gap between shoes barely leaves time for a toilet break.
Beware – a small handful of low seated tables with ASM and low min bets of $5 -10 are “Blackjack pays 6/5” or something equally avoidable. In all other tables (CSM and ASM) in that hall the regular min bet is $25 but at very busy times or if all seated players request and pit boss goes along they can get hiked to $50 or even $100 – existing players’ min bets get grandfathered till they quit the table but limited to one hand each.
I played live one night. Lost 20k, bout 73% of the cards were 7 or lower so every time i doubled i would get a 2 or 3 45% of the time at almost even time, so i ADJUSTED!! I stopped Doubling, keep hitting the 10 or 11 n get to 21 the hard way but I watched 32 cards come out n only 3 pictures, right!?.. Wasnt mad that i lost, but watched the next 60 cards come out, n told the dealer to watch with me., 8 picture cards came out, he started shaking his head i jus looked, shook my head n went about my buisness. End if the day ” i dont have to cheat to win, so i didnt like being cheated to lose”. Learn from this post cause Discipline is Key ?
what does “it deals to the rule of six” mean? I am translating a paper and I don´t know how to put it in Spanish.
Thank you in advance.

นับมาได้ประมาณ 3 เดือนแล้ว,
ดีขึ้นทุกวัน!
กลยุทธ์ของคุณช่วยได้มากเลย!
คำถามของฉันคือ คาสิโนที่ฉันเล่นแบล็คแจ็คใช้รองเท้าไพ่หกสำรับ.
เมื่อพวกเขาเปลี่ยนดีลเลอร์ในระหว่างการเล่นไพ่ในชุดใหม่ ดีลเลอร์คนใหม่จะต้องเผาไพ่ใบบนสุดเสมอ.
ฉันควรนับว่าไพ่ใบนี้เป็นลบหรือเป็นกลางหรือไม่ เนื่องจากฉันไม่เคยเห็นไพ่ใบนี้มาก่อน.
ขอบคุณ.
ให้ละเว้นไพ่ที่มองไม่เห็นทั้งหมด ถือว่าไพ่เหล่านั้นเป็นกลาง ราวกับว่าไพ่ใบนั้นอยู่หลังไพ่ที่ถูกตัดออกไปแล้ว และจะไม่มีวันถูกนำมาใช้.
ขอบคุณมาก!
why isn’t there any index for pair of 10s?
I have no idea why there was no data for the pair of 10s in GameMaster’s chart. I’m guessing it was accidentally removed during editing at some point.
I have added in the missing line on the matrix page. All set now.
(Split TTv5 @ +5. Split TTv6@ +4.)
Thanks for catching that!

That would be called luck. 🙂 You’ve been lucky on the trainer, and unlucky at the casino. Welcome to blackjack.
I played about 100 time and I win more than 80% ,
This is not a luck.
What algorithm is used for card shuffling?
I think the trainer play along me.
ปัญหาของเรื่องนี้คือคุณบอกให้เล่นอย่างถูกต้องเสมอ “ในระยะยาว” ผมไม่ได้เล่นเพื่อระยะยาว ผมเล่นเพื่อ 3 ชั่วโมงที่ผมอาจจะเห็น 200 มือ ไม่ใช่ล้านมือที่จำลองขึ้นมาเพื่อหาคำตอบของคุณ นั่นทำให้การเล่นของผมเป็น “ระยะสั้น” และอะไรก็เกิดขึ้นได้ในระยะสั้น และผมขอถามคำถามอีกข้อหนึ่งถ้าแผนกลยุทธ์พื้นฐานคือทุกสิ่งทุกอย่างแล้วทำไมทุกคนถึงยังแพ้ในเกมที่มีโอกาสชนะ 50/50? ฉันหมายถึงคุณไม่ได้เป็นเศรษฐี ไม่มีผู้เล่นแบล็คแจ็คมืออาชีพอยู่ข้างนอกนั้น และครั้งสุดท้ายที่ฉันได้ยิน คาสิโนก็ชนะทุกคนในเกมนี้มาตั้งแต่ยุคดึกดำบรรพ์แล้ว.
โอ้ ฉันจะเริ่มตรงไหนดีล่ะ? รู้สึกอิสระที่จะเล่นผิดพลาดใน “ระยะสั้น” ของคุณและหวังว่ามันจะออกมาดีสำหรับคุณ แน่นอนว่าอะไรก็เกิดขึ้นได้ในระยะสั้น แต่การเดิมพันในผลลัพธ์ที่มีแนวโน้มมากที่สุดนั้นแน่นอนว่าได้ผลดีกว่ามาก.
ผมไม่เคยอ้างว่ากลยุทธ์พื้นฐานเป็น “ทุกสิ่งทุกอย่าง” กลยุทธ์พื้นฐานเป็นกลยุทธ์ที่แพ้จริง ๆ มันเพียงแค่แพ้ให้น้อยกว่าวิธีการเล่นอื่น ๆ ที่ไม่ใช้ข้อมูลเพิ่มเติม แบล็คแจ็คไม่ใช่ “เกมที่ได้เงินเท่ากัน 50/50” มีข้อได้เปรียบของเจ้ามือในตัวเพราะเจ้ามือเล่นเป็นคนสุดท้าย (ถ้าคุณเกินแต้ม เจ้ามือชนะเงินคุณแม้ว่าเขาจะเกินแต้มเช่นกัน)
หากคุณคาดหวังผลกำไรจากการเล่นเกม คุณต้องการมากกว่ากลยุทธ์พื้นฐาน คุณต้องการข้อมูลเพิ่มเติม เช่น การนับไพ่ การติดตามการสับไพ่ หรือการเล่นไพ่โฮล.
ไม่มีผู้เล่นแบล็กแจ็กมืออาชีพอยู่เลยหรือ? ผมรู้จักพวกเขาหลายคน และพวกเขามักจะประสบความสำเร็จมาก.
Ever consider the times you may be HELPED by someone’s bonehead play?
tends to even out over time, I’d think.
