Welcome to our free online lessons blackjack shuffle tracking. If you are an experienced blackjack player, you will find this new technique interesting. We hope these lessons inspire you to explore and practice shuffle tracking.
Shuffle tracking is a fascinating new advantage gambling technique that developed from card counting. In card counting, the blackjack player notes what cards have been played so as to be able to predict those cards about to be played. Card counting is effective only to a limited degree since dealers can cut off play just when the count is turning in the player's favor. This is known as "preferential shuffling."
Shuffle tracking takes counting cards a step further. It does not stop when a new shuffle begins. Rather it is a continuous process in which the count from the previous shoe together with the shuffle is used to predict the placement of cards in the next shoe. In shuffle tracking, you trace the movement of the good and bad regions of a shoe so you will know when they are coming during play.
Do not be discouraged if this sounds complicated. True, you have to have experience in blackjack. The basic strategy should be second-nature to you and you must also know how to count cards. But on the other hand, you do not have to be a genius or a wizard with mystic powers to be able to do it. The really good shuffle trackers are few, but they do exist out there and we owe these lessons to them.

As a final thought, please remember to be very discreet in your shuffle tracking practices. A single mistake can get you banned in casinos for good. Professional blackjack is not an easy profession.
