- In this Blackjack Card Counting Challenge we will be dealing to Professional Blackjack Card Counters and 1 Amateur Gambler. Can you follow along and keep the count yourself? Will the gambler's strategy prove to be more profitable than the Card Counters strategy at the table by the end? At the beginning of each round we'll give you the running count and see how well you did.

This is probably one of the most satisfying videos to watch on this channel
The most satisfying and helpful videos you could ever see.
Yeah this is legit
Why did I feel the exact same way
i couldn’t stop. ok now sleeping
And its because of Colins lovely vest
I liked that. There should have been a video window showing the discard tray so we could practice estimating the decks.
good suggestion
was thinking that myself
I just found this channel so I'm trying to just get the basic card counting down I'm not doing so well but it helps when he has the running count for the next round
This was absolutely a perfect video. I loved that We could play along to keep the count. Please make more of these. So much fun!
Makes training a lot easier. I was trying to count along too
As someone who is just learning the basically strategy, I liked being able to guess when the next move should be. I was going to try counting too but gave up early.
4:46 I lost it when she split on a 20 then manages to bust, she could’ve won that hand, crazy
I very much liked this format. I've been with you for quite some time and this was very entertaining. Having the dynamics of different experience and playstyles was fun to watch without needing to be more concerned with my own hand and count.
This is one of the best vids you’ve done so far. Just getting into blackjack and all about your page. Please more real-time vids like this! Thank you 🙏
This was so entertaining! I'm not necessarily asking for anything, but it would be nice if you make those type of videos every once in a while (like few times a year) 🙂 also, I was looking for a not that aggressive bet spread, I guess I already found a 1-6 one 😅 also, since I started learning basic strategy and counting about a month ago (I don't spend that much time training a day, like 15/20 minutes) I decided to try keeping the running count on my own from the 2nd hand (I got the idea after the 1st one): I messed up twice, which is obviously very bad, but at least it was right on the 2nd hand because I got distracted and another very chaotic one. But yeah, all of that too say that it was very entertaining and also super useful, this is the first time I'm actually able to see the speed of an IRL game (I know it can vary a lot, but still), great video! 💪
You can't beat the game with a 1-6 spread if the penetration is 1.5 decks. You need around a 1-20 spread (2 spots) to have good EV and a lower N0.
If it's a single or double deck then yeah for sure, but for 6 decks you need bigger spread
玩百➕乐吗
You really should do more videos like this. Now that you might not have any more ideas of guides on how to play Blackjack, this is a good way to get videos out.
I love this kind of content, I hope you guys continue to make more like it! Thank you! I do not count cards, I just enjoy playing basic strategy. Some day I'll learn to count, for me specifically it's just a lot to comprehend.
Never seen it like this before (well, except for “Telly Savalas’ ABC’s of Blackjack” players). Nicely well done, Colin and all of Blackjack Apprenticeship.
The first 17 minutes was about how my sessions have been lol.. this was an awesome video guys!!!!! Love it
Love how yall put the running count and decks remaining on the screen in between rounds. So I can verify my accuracy when conting along.
Colin I love your content BUT it would be cool to see this with a ploppy playing perfect basic strategy and not doing things like splitting 5s of the jump. I know the counters would likely still prevail but the ploppy could have a positive variance streak that would make it interesting. I just think it'd be a better comparison, anyways thanks again for the great content!
This was really good to see how far I have gone learning how to count and convert true count, watching them bet the amount I am guessing they should was so fun
I'd love to see more of these, and possibly with a view of the discard tray as that is probably the only part I am not too comfortable with ;D
Love this channel, been watching for a while now and is probably the best for learning all you need to get started and I bought some of the books mentioned in some videos, really good reads ;D
Lol I’m sitting here eating breakfast frustrated at her moves
This was fun to watch, and it brought home how fast the game goes, and how quickly things change.
So I tried to count this today. I was off by 1 two separate times, and off by a lot (6,) in one hand when I forgot I was counting. I got distracted. Watching this again taught me a lot about what you were doing and when and why. I think I need to learn strategy now and keep practicing counting and see if i can do both at once. rofl.
was off by 1 at some point, but couldnt remember or didnt know basic strategy on some occasions
I wish the dealers at a casino kept asking if we want them to deal another hand at the end of the shoe xD Nice video, good fun. If you do more, make sure to have the discard tray in the shot
Fr I get a good count after hours then I see the discard card 😭
@@luisalexander8492❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 17:01 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
MORE OF THIS, PLEASE!
I've realised that is much easier than I thought. I noticed that when you are not counting every card individually, it's so much easier. In addition, by just thinking of the number, not the calculation itself. You have enough time for the rest.
This is a awesome video, you guys should really do more like these!!!!! Very helpful!
There should be more of these videos. Very useful!
This was a great video! Keep making ones like this, it is very helpful
Love when yall play, deal etc and let me count along and learn live.
Would love to see more sessions like this.
SD1 surrendering 88 v T above a true 1, very nice. Didn't know that deviation.
absolutely loved this!
hopefully becomes a new feature of the channel.
This was a great video thank you. I'm just starting to learn and this was cool to watch and practice in real time
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant. Now how good do I need to be for the boot camp?
@@leon17x37 as good as you can be, so you can get tested out while youre there
SUPER helpful on how do to the betting spread and when. Also was able to keep the count along with the vid in a "live" play scenario, even with distractions. Thanks for this one!
Echoing the sentiment that this was a great format. I'd like to see this more frequently. Some suggestions for improvement: A better view of the deck/discard so we can play along with estimating true count. Also I like the periodic updates on running count but it could be a cool way to use the annotations or a special closed caption in the video so that the count is always available updated to the most recent hand.
Love it!!!! More videos like this, please!!
Interesting, instructional, entertaining and humorous. Great stuff.
Remember guys, card counting does work you need a good bank roll, and you will lose hands but that’s where you need to place the appropriate bet. It’s all about generating positive EV and it’s a long term game. I won my last few sessions of blackjack but the time is just as much as a pro poker game. I play poker most of the time now. I every once in awhile play blackjack. But when I do I go with a solid bank roll and play strictly with counting. Lastly stay humble and stay focused no matter how fun it is if you lose the count please get off the table!!
Just like a regular casino, Colin never busts!
Last time I was in Vegas I busted on every 12
If i had over 18 dealer pulls a 20 or 21.
Any time i doubled an 11 it was always less than 4.
Dealer never busted once
So rigged
@@Jay-og4yb I wouldn't say rigged, just terrible variance.
I learned to play blackjack on The World Is Not enough PS1 game. Ever since then I play it blackjack when I'm not too busy. My win rate is pretty high despite not learning to count cards in the traditional sense.
Its like yall read my mind.Ive been waiting for this channel to drop a video like this.
Loved being able to practice my counting
This is great! Would love to see more of the live action example videos like this.
Could you make/are there more of these? This passively teaches a lot about the game and is relaxing af to watch.
even though i play a lotta blackjack this ia always enjoyable to watch. Do more of these Colin
Great episode! Post more! At least once a week. These are helpfull. Watching others, that are at a lot closer to our levels, practicing. Would be great as well if you put thr card's sums and the count on the screen the entire time.
Yessss we need more of these!!
This was awesome to watch! Love the dealer vest 😂
I got to get me a vest like Colin is wearing when I hit the casinos. Love it. Pitt boss won't think I'm counting wearing that flash.
Haha colin's commentary is brilliant. Love it.
excellent, more of these! 🙂
More of these, please.
Great video. Oh man when she spilt the queens, I couldn’t believe it 😂 and then went bigger size on the next play. Yikes. Crazy to think some people actually play like this. Great illustration of the gambler mindset! Cheers!
She had a classic case of playing with other peoples money.
No skin in the game.
Great video. I would love more like this.
Pretty please make loads more of these! Thanks!
Still just starting out…had trouble keeping up with the RC but this video really helped with understanding how TC works
I really liked this video and I wish there was more of it!
....but 1st and 3rd base, "the counters" were 'scared' to bet the ramp....multiple times no less.....AMATEURS!!!!
can you please keep making these video's very helpful for someone learning to count to keep just focused on the counting part
We do what we can for CZcams, but the good stuff is and will always be in our Membership area.
Would love to see more videos like this one!
Awesome! More of this.
More of these. It's fun to watch and to practice counting :)
We're working on another one soon!
This was great! Do more of this with different cameos
That was great to watch and practice
more videos like this please
why did u surrender 8s vs a 10 instead of splitting even tho basic strategy says to always split 8s and on their S17 and H17 deviation charts it still says to always split ???? someone please answer if they know!!
i was able to keep up for quite a bit of it. would be awesome to see more of this type of video
would be great to demonstrate variance as well.
Great video, I definitely enjoyed it.
15:20 you paid that man a blackjack before checking for blackjack on a 10 😮. Takes a dealer to notice these little things lol
He literally checks for bj before that. Seems like you aren't that good of a dealer, didn't notice that little detail.
For someone that has played so much blackjack, he doesn't even know that the first car dealt to the dealer is dealt face up. He was dealing the first hand to himself face down and then flipped the second card up. Pretty amateurish
Please do more of these!
I’d love to see more vids like this. Applying the information like this is super helpful.
More videos like this please!
Mate great video really enjoyed it!
I hope you make more videos like this!
Been playing since 2019. Logged in 650 hours that first year, then about 100 hours the following years. Break even player even after all this time. It is what it is. The forces are strong when I am about to have a chance to get ahead!! My 2 card 20s are fun to see on the high count until…dun dun dun….hello Dealer backdoor blackjack (4) times in a row to my pocket 20s. The funniness of the casinos!
More of these please!
Respect SD1 for witty table talk while counting and playing. Thx for tips at BC.
Bro I'm 4 seconds into this video and already I'm mesmerized by that vest, it's stunning. . . Where can I get one lol
More of these videos please. !!!
This video was awesome ! Can we get some more of these please 🙏
Loved this vid!
These types of videos are great for practice I'd say
I was just at the casino counting cards. Had my first losing session in about 2 months. No matter how many times I lose, it totally sucks. I was in a great winning streak from Vegas to the near by casinos. But it's too to know how the pros do it. I'm a little off on my wager. It's good to know the value you put on the hands. Thanks
Yeah, I find the actual witnessing the application of the strategy combined with the card counting is the most helpful form of teaching. Personally.
WE NEED MORE OF THESE VIDEOS
Great video! More
While I was able to count the cards, I still don’t think I would be able to pull that off while actively playing basic strategy.
what a brutal shoe!! loved the video!
Great video. It was so fun to count along and find out I still got it after a few years of taking time off
I played mainly in the 80-90’s
I don’t know if my brain can keep the count, but I do know my eyes can’t send the correct info to my brain.
Another day at the office where dealer keeps pulling 10's 😂 .
Such a great video, thanks 🙏
6:38 changing the order of the deck by getting the first 4 cards to the bottom of the deck. For what reason?
Really enjoyed watching this. Wish you would do it again. Love Loudon. Guy won't stfu.
🙋♀️🥳please do more of this kind of content ❤️🙏🙏 do it again!!!
THIS
WAS
AWESOME
I would love to see more content like this. Videos of people not following basic strategy juxtaposed to top notch advantage play to everything in between. That would get Stephen Bridges numbers. Please give it some thought regardless of whether you already have.
I lost last time I went to the casino and I was very discouraged and I started questioning if somehow I was counting the cards wrong. After being able to keep up with the count all the way through this video, it gave me my confidence back that I am at least not messing up the running count. I find it kind of hard to tell how many decks are left though and even how many are discarded at casinos. Maybe I'm messing up the true count idk. Great video though! Will come back to practice before next trip to casino.
The fluctuation in just one shoe of play was very mild. I have run simulations for given rules and conditions and the sims show that you need a very large bankroll into the many thousands to achieve a certain risk of ruin. This is because losing streaks can go on for months where you lose and lose and it can make you wonder if you are doing everything right.
It’s interesting to note that the two card counting players had outcomes where one lost and the other won, and this demonstrates that anything can happen in the short term. It’s quite possible that if more shoes were dealt, one could go on having winning hands while the other loses big time and yet each player played correctly, apart from having different bet sizing. It can take hundreds of rounds of play before your results get close to the EV of the game.
This was very cool
Perfect video!!!
The blind squirrel line had me howling
I have never rooted for anyone more than Grace following her heart
Do more of these!
This is gonna be good 😀😀
I loved Colin's face
I can tell he's torn cause his wife is losing
But also happy she's losing cause she's playing wrong hahahaha
Best video on your channel
Should do more of this more often.
Would be cool of you guys if you did more videos like this...
