Card counting is a controversial blackjack tactic that can tip the odds in your favor but requires skill and caution.

Card counting tracks the ratio of high to low cards using simple point systems to predict upcoming cards.

Effectiveness and Limitations

While it can reduce the house edge, casinos actively discourage card counting and may ban suspected counters.
