Here
is the quickest and clearest explanation you will ever find on card counting.
The following system is not only known as one of the best systems out
there, but it will also give you a general idea about how card counting
works.
When the deck has a shortage of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
When the deck has a shortage of 10-valued cards, Ace.
Add and Subtract values according to the chart below.
| Card |
2 | 3
| 4 | 5

Count when the deck is full of 10s, and Aces, and then do one of the following:
* Bet high.
* Adjust your Basic Strategy play according to the appropriate level of
advantage you have counted.
Use the following chart to determine how much to bet and when. For example,
let's say you just bet $10. At the end of the same hand, the count is +6
(you're in really good shape). So, for the next hand, you bet 4x10,m as
the chart indicates.
