Is card counting spreadsheet really helpful?

[qwerty1783]

I lost 10k in a week and found a video from youtube introducing blackjack card counting spreadsheet. Do u guys think I can make my money back with the spreadsheet? It is bit expensive but I may try it if it really works

As above ^^^^

Online they use normally around 50% penetration, ( ok i will wait for the juvenile laughing to stop ) and that's the main reason why, to stop any card counting in its tracks.

Aside from the fact that you would have an edge for maybe 10 mins out of every 24 hours watching the game, there are 2 other problems to your strategy.

First one is playing to "win your money back" is likely to result in further losses due to bad decisions caused by emotional stress and/or desperation.

The second reason is that if a casino sees you only bet on the rare time the count is giving you an edge, they will quickly ban you. And unlike in land based casinos the software will know exactly what the count is, and which customers are betting what and when.
