Counting cards shifting the expectation in your favor
Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting system gain an advantage over the gambling hall.
The reason this is simple.
Low cards favour the dealer in blackjack and high cards favour the player.

In casino chemin de fer, you can hold on your stiffs if you choose to, but the casino cannot.
The dealer has no choice to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of gambling on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how flush the deck is in high cards that will break her.
The high cards favour the gambler because they might bust the house when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.
Despite the fact blackjacks are, equally divided between the dealer and the player, the fact is that the player gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the player has an edge.
You don’t have to tally the numbers of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the house.
You simply need to know at what point the deck is flush or poor in high cards and you can boost your bet when the edge is in your favour.
This is a basic commentary of why card-counting schemes work, but gives you an understanding into why the rationale works.
