KO blackjack card counting system
When done right, blackjack can bring in really good winnings of several thousand euros. An important point is choosing the right strategy. One of the possible strategies is card counting. It is certainly not easy and it takes some effort to learn it. Furthermore, only a handful of casino players really know how to count cards. If you actually want to count cards in blackjack, you should definitely pay attention to the correct counting system, there are many different options.
If you have never counted cards before, you should definitely choose one of the simple systems. The hi/lo system or KO card counting is available on simple systems. In particular, the KO card counting system is easy to set up and quick to learn. You can always progress to more advanced and difficult card counting methods later, once you've got the hang of it and mastering the basics.
Newcomers who are just starting out with card counting should definitely start the game with smaller stakes. When choosing the gaming table, you should pay particular attention to the respective minimum stakes at the tables. It is not advisable for beginners to play directly at a table with a minimum bet of 25 euros, rather start with a minimum bet of 5 euros at another blackjack table. After a certain familiarization phase, you can also dare to bet higher and switch to a table with a higher minimum bet, since you should then know when to place the bets and when to form a blackjack with the right cards in the stack.
If you want to play card counting in blackjack, you should bring a large budget with you to be on the safe side, because you don't always win. On the contrary, at the beginning you should also take larger losses into account. All the more reason to choose tables with low minimum stakes and an easy system like KO card counting. If you decide to count cards, you should count on a budget of 10,000 or 20,000 euros, since you have to bet a lot with blackjack if you want to win a lot. Also, although blackjack is a strategy game, luck is still necessary if you want to win, and even experienced players can incur big losses here
So a lot of practice is needed for this strategy and it only promises success if you master it 100%. Then there is the possibility to make big profits with high stakes. And even with the simple system of KO card counting, you don't get a complete overview of all the cards that are still in the deck.
Once KO card counting - always KO card counting?

Blackjack KO card counting is the simplest counting system in blackjack, everyone should be able to remember the running count. The difference from another simple system, Hi/Lo strategy, is that the system is balanced because after counting the entire deck, the total is not "0". This is due to the value "+1" of the "7", which has the value "0" in the Hi/Lo system. This strategy is the most common in blackjack, with many players using it in their games on a daily basis.
Since the game is rather slow and you can see all the cards in your hand in front of you at all times, counting the cards is not particularly difficult. However, some of the systems used are significantly more difficult than KO card counting. It is therefore the best possible strategy for anyone new to card counting and for any new player.
Professional players advise only beginners to use this blackjack strategy. For these, it is crucial that KO card counting is easy to learn and all difficult systems are similar to this. When you master the system later, you can switch to a more difficult system. The systems usually work more precisely, the more difficult the system is. As such, once you master the KO card counting system, it's wise to learn a more advanced strategy.
How KO card counting works
![How KO card counting works.jpg How KO card counting works.jpg](/upload/medialibrary/b11/2njwrbfyvgd6f1eb83y1428mhry2wmns.jpg)
The KO card counting results in the following values:
The cards from two to seven are valued with "+1" The cards eight and nine are valued with "0" The cards jack, queen, king, ace and ten are valued with "-1".
It becomes clear relatively quickly that you don't have to memorize too much with these card values. You're already on the safe side if you're able to remember that the high cards are worth "-1" and the low cards are worth "+1". That leaves the eight and nine with the value “0”. But you should remember that too. The only important thing is that you don't mix it up, otherwise you'll spoil it you grow your running count.
Make sure that you always keep the total value when dealing out the different cards. The better the balance sheet, the more you should bet. Should the balance be lower, the stakes should also be lower. If the value is a promising +20, a bet of five to ten units can be considered. If the value is below 20, this is rather negative for you and an advantage for the house. Then you should only bet one session or take a little break.![WinSpirit Enhances VIP Experience with Unique Tournaments and Rewards](/upload/resize_cache/iblock/326/280_156_2/82l8i7et1mx256uu0tjncv9rsp58v8mt.png)

Parkerroberts This is a perfect example of why self-exclusion programs exist. They’re there to help people stay away from gambling. Trying to bypass them not only defeats the purpose but can lead to serious trouble like this.

Donaldbetty It's concerning to see such young individuals involved in large-scale cyber attacks. This shows the importance of investing in cybersecurity education and preventive measures from a young age. Hopefully, the authorities can get to the bottom of this and prevent future incidents.

HelenTheAmbitious It's great to see that Ontario is cracking down on unregulated gaming sites, but lowering the RTP to 85% feels like a sneaky way to take more from players. Regulation should mean better protection, not just more ways for the house to win.
