Players who use advanced card counting systems to gain an advantage over the house typically employ sophisticated strategies that involve tracking the distribution of cards in real-time, using mental or mechanical counters to keep track of the cards that have been played. This allows them to gain an edge by knowing when the deck is more favorable or unfavorable, and adjusting their betting and playing decisions accordingly. Advanced card counters often focus on identifying specific situations, such as a high number of low-value cards remaining in the deck, and adjust their strategy to maximize their expected value. By doing so, they can exploit the house's built-in advantage and increase their chances of winning.

Players who utilize advanced card counting systems in blackjack go beyond the basic high-low count method and delve into more complex and nuanced strategies. These advanced systems often involve assigning different point values to cards, keeping track of multiple counts simultaneously, and incorporating side counts for specific card combinations.
Some of the popular advanced card counting systems include:
1. Omega II Count: This system assigns different values to cards compared to traditional systems like Hi-Lo. It is more complex and requires players to maintain a higher level of concentration and precision.
2. Wong Halves: Developed by Stanford Wong, this system assigns fractional values to cards, making it more accurate but also more mentally taxing to use effectively.
3. Hi-Opt II: This system is a refined version of the Hi-Opt I system, incorporating side counts to track the number of high cards that have been played.
4. Zen Count: Similar to the Hi-Lo system but with additional adjustments for when the count is high, making it more effective in certain situations.
Players who use these advanced systems often rely on software simulations and extensive practice to hone their skills and ensure they can apply the strategy effectively during gameplay. By mastering these advanced card counting systems, players can increase their edge over the casino and improve their chances of coming out ahead in the long run.
