Blackjack Gardens

If you've played much Blackjack, But is it? I'm going to share with you what casinos do, the strategies people use to try to beat the casinos, as well as what actually works. I'm Colin from Blackjack Apprentices I've played professionally and I've run teams responsible for being casinos for roughly four million dollars and I'm going to introduce you to Joe the Gambler. Joe the Gambler wants to know that w But before I answer it, why don't you put below in the comments the first t Usually Joe the Gambler has several theories, but misses the big one. When you have a better hand than the dealer, you win. When the dealer has a better hand than you, you lose. When you have the same hand, you push. Nobody wins or loses. But what happens when both you and the dealer bust? You still lose. You see, the game is designed in a way to have a built-in disadvantage against the player. And that isn't enough for the casinos. As some smart players figure out how to use some of the rules to their advantage, casinos then limit or remove those rules. Here's an example. Back in the day, Atlantic City had a rule called early surrender, which meant that you could give up half of your bet if you didn't A very small percentage of people learned how to play that game so that they had the advantage because of that rule. What did the casinos do? They removed the rule. It was around the beginning of December of 79. They accidentally gave the player the option to surrender before the dealer checked for blackjack. Everybody just played as many hours they possibly could because every day there was a room where t How long can t We increased our bankroll in 13 days from 40 to 100,000. One day, resort's actually had a losing day, Same the casinos are removing the rules that are better for the player so they can keep a larger edge against the player. Now there are hands where the player has an advantage against a dealer. Imagine you have an 11 against a dealer six. You can double down and that gives you a 67% advantage on that hand. But then again, the casinos limit our double downs. You can only double down on your first two cards. You can only double down to the amount that you originally bet. All of the same t Casinos know that a pair of aces is good for the player some casinos won't even let you split a pair of aces. Other casinos you can split but you only get one card. You can't double down. They limit you to their advantage. There's another hand that gives the player a huge advantage. Can you t It's a blackjack. If the dealer gets a blackjack, we lose our bet. But if we get one, we get more than our bet on a blackjack. Usually 1. 5 times our original bet. But the casino wants more of Joe's money. So they've started installing six to five blackjack tables so they can get as much out of you as possible. It's incredibly important for Joe to know that the casinos do not want winners. So they're going to set up the game in a way to try to limit players from ever beating them. But Joe is not a victim. He's done research and has come up with a plan. One time at a table Joe was playing at, a player came up with a strategy to counteract the fact that the player loses when both he and the dealer bust. Joe is playing proper basic strategy but t Can I just not No. It turns out you lose money eight times faster with the no-bust strategy compared to basic strategy. T We break down all the math in another video but just because someone was winning in the short term with it does not mean it'sustainable and you are guaranteed to lose your money way faster using t But Joe's not trying to be greedy at the table. He just wants to win a little bit every time he goes to the casino. So T Plenty of people when you're playing at the casino, you're up at some point but then if you keep playing you lose it back and then some and you're the interesting thing is the odds of being up something You can quit w But the t What if you come back to the casino on another day and just try to do the second time you come back if you try to be up another three bets then that's actually trying to be up six bets. Try to do it a the cards at the table don't care when you start and stop again. You can'trick the odds into forgetting about you. The t It'statistically not possible. Every hand of Blackjack you play is increasing towards this long run of the odds working out and Not to be dissuaded Joe has heard other things But none of these stand up against the mathematics of the game. Now we're back to square one. It's all rigged. But there is a glitch in the matrix. Depending on the rules and conditions there is a strategy based on math and logic that is perfectly legal and it works. It's not easy. Casinos do not Find out how and why
