Counting cards using the Hi-Lo method involves assigning values to cards: low cards (2-6) are worth +1, high cards (10-Ace) are -1, 7-9 are neutral (0). As cards are dealt, you maintain a running count to assess the ratio of high to low cards remaining in the deck. A favorable count occurs when the running count is positive, indicating more high cards are left, which increases your chances of winning, especially if you increase your bets. To get true count divide count by number of decks #mathisfun #blackjack #streetinterview
