Although the strategies herein were developed for the Sands World Championship of Casino Games Tournament in Atlantic City, they are adaptable to any tournament in any casino.

If you are entering a tournament with only a single game, e.g., Sahara Blackjack Tournament, you would risk the entire buy-in amount instead of 25% of it as described herein.

If you are entering the Sahara Blackjack Tournament, use the playing and betting strategies exactly as described herein, except divide your two-hour round into a beginning (first 40 minutes), a middle (second 40 minutes), and an end (last 40 minutes) game.

If you are entering a Craps Tournament, e.g., the Riviera or Resorts, use the playing and betting strategies exactly as described herein. Just define your beginning, middle, and end games according to tournament criteria (time or completed rolls).

Roulette and Baccarat Tournament players follow the same principles.

The High-Count System

You have the advantage when the remaining deck(s) is rich in 10’s and aces. That’s when you should increase your bet.

The High-Count System was developed for the player who does not wish to invest the time required to learn the more complicated strategies. Counting high cards only is much easier than scanning every card to update a point count.

You play this system by counting 10’s and aces and watching the discards or discard tray. You must be able to approximate the remaining deck(s) in the game. This is done by estimating the discards and subtracting this number from the total deck(s) in the game, e.g., in a six-deck game if you estimate one deck is in the discard tray, then there are five decks remaining.

Select and learn the appropriate table for the game you will be playing. Bet one unit when the total count of the high cards seen is normal or above. When fewer than normal high cards have been seen, bet according to the table.

This system approximates betting one unit per High- Low true count, and will be slightly off whenever a surplus of 7’s, 8’s, and 9’s has been played.
