Does counting cards still work?!

[mrhighroller66]

yesterday, i tried to count cards with myself as the dealer and player i played with one deck, and of course with the counting rules (1-6 : +1; 7-9 : 0; 10 - ace/king/queen: -1). I wanted to test the strategy first, before playing for real. 

 

I started dealing the cards... 

short story is that house won 8 times and i only won 2 times, although i did count each and every card correctly! 

 

So my question is wether counting cards actually works?

You must be a lucky guy,winning 10 out of 10 times being dealer and player at the same time.  

I am not a cardplayer but as far as I know counting cards makes no sense because casinos are using 3 or 4 decks together and start again with new decks long before all decks are being played.

absolutely right! that is how it works in casino, so the topic is a bit irrational
