In blackjack, card counting involves tracking the ratio of high cards (10, J, Q, K) to low cards (2-6) in the deck; when the count is high (more high cards remaining), players should increase their bets because the probability of getting blackjack and winning improves significantly.

Encountering Beavis and Butthead at the CasinoAdded:
Okay, yo, I was at the casino. But first of all, I stopped making these vlogs cuz even on the third channel, a lot of you guys are like really parasocial. So, what you need to do is you need to shut the [ __ ] up, okay? Any of this fake concern for me, like, oh, your gambling addiction. Oh, I always play within my means. Anything I put down, I'm willing to lose. The thing is, I don't lose, okay? I'm up lifetime thousands thousands of dollars and I play I play pretty casually. I get in and out for the most part, okay? So, shut the [ __ ] up. Thanks. So [ __ ] annoying. on my third channel, too. Okay, I'm at the casino. First of all, I win past two days. [ __ ] beautiful. Um, pretty long story, but I was going to tell you the fun parts. I'm playing double deck.
Okay. Also, what time is it? I'm on my lunch break. Uh, I'm playing the double deck. I I I had like this crazy free bet. And free bet is when you get to split for free. Uh, and you can double 9, 10, and 11 for free. Uh, except it pushes 22. So, the math is actually not in your favor.
Except when you actually just do like a crazy free bet and you win. I got one of those crazy free bets. I got like um I split four nines. It's [ __ ] nuts.
Four nines. Uh I doubled on like one of them. And then the dealer pushed 22. It was like seven. Drew a five. You never want you never want to see a 12 in free bet. You just never Okay, cuz a high card is going to lead to a good hand like 19 20 21. A monkey is going to lead to a push. You It has to be low card into 10, you know. So this is not happening. [ __ ] dealer pushes. I lose two I lose a chance to win $250.
Whatever happens, um I get another split at some point. It's like triple sixes and I think I double my first and my third hand, so like six and a five and you get, you know, [ __ ] high card and then the other one I I remember was like six and a four or something. Um I made out like a bandit. It was [ __ ] nice.
It was like $200, $250. I go to the double deck. Okay, I'm sitting with my brother. I'm in first position and then my brother and then it's this other dude who he thinks my brother thought it was like a casino plant to like [ __ ] up the count, right? If you make a play, then he just like takes a card or like [ __ ] off. Uh, and then there's two dudes at the end, Beas and Buttad, dude. Two like maybe 30-year-old Asian dudes and they're just one of them is playing and the other one's coaching him. The problem is he's coaching them incorrectly. Like I sit down and my brother's like, "Yo, this guy, like these guys are straight trolling." I'm like, "What do you mean?" Okay, I know what they mean within seconds. All right, they're not hitting like 12 versus 10. They're not like doubling against like dealer showing like six and five, right? They have like a soft 18 or something. They're just they're just [ __ ] trolling, right? Like like I'll tell you in a second, but we we start the shoe, okay? It's double deck, right?
So, if you if you're not familiar, if I give you like a deck of cards with a standard 52 and I at some point turn over four aces and I ask you how many aces are left in the deck, you should say zero, right? If you're not [ __ ] trolling, okay, if you're not an idiot.
Uh, so double deck blackjack is exactly what you think it is. I'm just hand is tired. Um, so a bunch of cards come out, right? start of the shoe, which means like after both decks are shuffled, um it's like three, four, four, five, five. Okay, something like that. Uh guy in the middle is playing two hands, he's probably there to [ __ ] up the count. I more I think about it, it's actually kind of true cuz he was talking to dealers like he knew them and [ __ ] Um but bunch of low cards and when you're when you're counting cards, if you see anything between two and six, like you're just like, "Okay, good." Right? And then 7 8 9 you don't care. Zero. And then high cards minus one. Okay. Not going to teach you the whole thing. I'm not an expert.
Whatever. Just going to say that ahead of time so I don't get many back seats.
Shut the [ __ ] up. Right. But basically, tons of low cards, which means that there are less low cards and it's more likely to hit a high card when it comes out. As in like a [ __ ] 10. All right?
Cuz there are four kinds of tens, right?
The 10, jack, queen, king. So, I play that first hand. I I don't remember if I won or lost, but I know for a fact the next hand I play because the count is super high. I'm going to slam $100. I put a $100 bet out. Okay.
Immediately. Eight. Blah blah blah blah blah blah. Three. And if you know anything about drawing to an 11, you're going to [ __ ] double that. Dealer showing a seven. Not so nice. Would have been perfect. Would have been textbook if the dealer were showing a six, but it's a [ __ ] seven. Okay. So, I sit there for like half a second. And I'm like, the count is mega high. We've seen only one queen so far, right? Everything else low cards are neutral. And I'm like, it's like a true count of like three or four at this point or something like that. Um, I'm [ __ ] doubling this, of course. Like, I put out the $100 bet for this reason. So, I [ __ ] double. That's 200 chips, right? $200 in chips right in front. Just eight greens.
The dealer, I'll tell you in a second. I I I dropped to 21. Okay. Obviously, cuz I got the [ __ ] high card. Let's go.
The rest of the people play. I forgot what they do. The Divas got the seven.
I'm like, please, dear God, just just pull out the 10. Just pull out the monkey. Boom. 17. I bag $200 in one play. I play minimum bet 25 for the rest of the night. I'm like, "Oh my [ __ ] god. Let's go. Let's go." Because good good thing because [ __ ] Beas and Buttad at the end of the table. They're doing some stupid [ __ ] I had one hand.
I was 15. I played 15. Uh, first of all, they never hit their 15s or 16s. These these guys are and their last position, too. Like, what the [ __ ] are you doing?
Okay, so I'm 15 here. I hit, of course, I get a six. I make a 21. I'm like, dude, [ __ ] yeah. [ __ ] yeah. These guys at the end have 14 against dealers 10.
It's It's a [ __ ] 10, mind you. Okay, I'm 15 for 10. I forgot that context, right? Obviously, I'm not hitting 15 in a lot of other cases. Um, they're 14 against 10 and they're like debating in Chinese. I I can understand a little bit of Chinese and say, "Oh, bua boo." I'm like, "What the [ __ ] you mean, bua?"
Man, the [ __ ] yo, [ __ ] Yo, [ __ ] take that [ __ ] dude. Like, what are you doing? Okay, they don't [ __ ] take it.
I think it was a 20 dealer drew a 20 and they're like, "Yeah, we saved you." I'm like, "What do you mean you saved? I got 21." Obviously, I wasn't that aggressive, right? But I was thinking like, like my brother starts laughing.
The guy next to him starts laughing because we we know the theory, right?
I'm like, "What do you mean?" Like, I I hit 21. I was good. And so they're like, "No, no, no. We saved you. saved you.
I'm like, "No, like like you you you thought like the next card would be an ace. Like what? Like if what do you mean saved me?" Cuz you didn't take a card.
Like you thought that like it would be an ace and it would blackjack cuz that's not what happened. And like no, we say like they they they they speak English by the way. They speak English, okay?
Like fluent. So like I know that they understood me. I'm like, "No, dude. I got 21."
They just didn't say anything. I'm like, "What the fuck?" So they're playing like idiots. They're like not hitting like 12 versus 10. They're not like like I mentioned, they they just like don't double in certain spots or they're asking if they should double. He had like a [ __ ] he split he split at some point and had like a 12 against like dealer five and he's like, "Yo, this is a double, right?" And I'm like, and the dealer's like, "What? Like, what? What do you mean double?" Right? The whole deal was like, "What the [ __ ] are you saying?" What's funny is the next card in his split was a nine. So if he doubled, he would have made 21. And you know, immediately he's he's just like my viewers. 100 IQ, super hindsight. Oh, I should have doubled. I'm like, "Oh my god, dude. I I just I don't like playing with that [ __ ] right? I don't like playing with that." But like, we're all laughing. We're like, "Yeah, haha." You know, "Oh, you could have made it. The fuck?" You know? So, the next next dealer comes and witnesses some of this.
And and I make a comment to my brother.
I'm like, "Dude, it's such injustice that these guys are winning." She she like leans over and she like smiles and like nods. I'm like, "Oh, did I say that too loud?" Basically, I'm like I'm just talking some [ __ ] I'm like, "Dude, it's crazy that these guys are winning. Like, how are they getting paid off playing like this?" Cuz my brother's losing all this doubles and [ __ ] These [ __ ] idiots are winning. [ __ ] dude. I made another comment to my brother. I'm like, "Yo, you think they play better with two heads thinking instead of one?" And I'm just like, dude, I'm just flaming them the whole night like casually to my brother, right? Cuz we're just talking [ __ ] But they're at the end of the table. I I didn't I wasn't trying to be rude to them. I was just having fun with my brother. But the dealer heard me and [ __ ] laughed. And I'm like, "Yeah, no. This is crazy." Like the casino loves these kinds of people because when they win, they come back, you know? So, all right. Thanks for watching. Don't be parasocial.
