Blackjack (along with video poker) is one of 2 casino games that we know for a fact can be beaten through the proper application of math and strategy.

Otherwise, the longer you play, the more the house advantage at those games will eat away at your bankroll.

By tracking when the deck is rich in cards favorable to the player. a card counter can raise his bets accordingly, and increase his overall expectation against the house.
