I cant fathom anyone here doubts the mathematical foundation of blackjack. So if its math its all about formulas.
Starting at the very beginning, there is a formula that calculates the odds of getting a natural (21 from A and T in the first two cards). Everybody agrees that the probability of a blackjack natural is 4.83% ( beginning of 1Deck). Odds change if adding players to the dealer. If I play headsup in 1D, some 5 rounds per shuffle, the odds of a natural go up to 22%. So from 1 in 21 (very first 2 cards) to better than 1 in 5 in 5 rounds.
Odds like those were verified and confirmed even in WoV forums. The most comprehensive calculations were published first here:
Blackjack Probability, Odds Formulas
My question is - are there similar math formulae for card counting? Logically there must be such formulas. In the natural 21 probability, the formulas are based on number of Aces and Tens in rapport to 2-card combinations of cards remaining in the deck. Cardcounting is also calculated on number of Aces and Tens in rapport to cards remaining in the deck.
I go with the systematic count system where only 8s are discarded. Thus this system covers most cards in the deck. I got 9, T, A in the plus/high zone of the equation. There must be at least one formula to calculate the odds of winning in plus/positive counts. No?
Think about it how valuable it would be. We know the odds of winning in the very next round (when the count is +). We then can easily calculate the probabilities in the next rounds. If we didnt win the previous + rounds we increase the best even higher in future + counts. Looks very logical to me.
For sure this will be for sure the first attempt to solve the mathematical mystery of bj card counting. I ghope good replies will ensue. Exception: Angry birds please dont reply. You know who (the one) ur. You better pour a strong one and watch march madness (and bet if you can)..
