In blackjack what does an ace count as

To incorporate TC, I like Surrender8,8's (don't do that, though) idea of just eyeballing the size of the discard pile versus the size of the cards remaining in the shoe and going with your gut feeling.
I also endorse your plan of jumping your bet when you see a hand or two of little cards come out. With 7 players at a table, the average 'good' plus hand (small cards dealt to players into a dealer's 7 - A) shows you about 25 cards, so two in a row can show you 50 cards, or nearly 1/6th of the entire 6 deck shoe.
Since two 'good' hands in a row often move the RC by 8 to 10, the logic of raising your bet is sound, no matter how drunk you might be: 1/6th of the shoe's gone and a + 10-ish count has to be folded into the other 5 decks (a + 2 TC, as applied to cards played before and after those two hands). In any event, your next bet will definitely be into a better deck composition than you made your last two bets into, so based on that alone, a bigger bet's justified. Plus, it's fun.
Here's a pop quiz on basic strategy. Ace this and you're definitely past having to worry about strategy cards. What do you do when you've got:
A, 7 v 2? v 3? v 7? v 8? v 9? v 10?
4, 4 v 2? v 4? v 5? v 7?
3, 3 v 2? v 3? v 7? v 8?
5, 4 v 2? v 3? v 7?
8, 8 v 9? v 10?
9, 9 v 6? v 7? v 8? v 9? v 10?
Dealer's got a 4. What do you do with: A, 2? A, 3? A, 4? A, 5? A, 6? A, 7? A, 8?
Did you ace it?

  • The more aces remain, the higher your chances of getting a blackjack. Ace side counts for non-balanced counting systems (like Zen Count or KO Count) are calculated in a different way and are used to increase the accuracy of playing strategy, particularly as to whether a player should take insurance.
  • As the dealer, the basic rules of blackjack still apply. Cards 2 through 10 are worth their face value. The jack, queen and king are worth 10 points each. The ace has a value of either 1 point or 11 points, depending on its usage in your hand. The advanced rules of blackjack, however, are a little bit different.
  • Cards 2 through 10, no matter the suit, represent that number. Face cards, whether it’s a King, Queen, or a Jack, have a card value of 10. The Ace card is special, and can have a card value of 11 or 1 – nothing inbetween, just a solid 11 or a solid 1. And you get to pick!
