I've always been puzzled by this phrase, "the flow of the cards". I've heard it from serious gamblers, but I've never really gotten the chance to ask them what it actually means. I am therefore turning to you guys to ask, what the do gamblers mean when they say it?

*The context for the phrase in which it is used is blackjack.

Maybe it's related to a superstitious belief that cards will follow a 'flow' (flux, fluidity, continuous movement) in game, if you manage to attract the correct positive energies and vibrations to yourself? If you achieve doing this, inevitably profit will reach to you. On the other hand, if you don't control your emotions inside the right vibration, the flow isn't going to bring the correct cards to your hands. Anyway, it's not really going to work like that for real, because there is a house edge playing against gamblers all the time, which puts the casino in an advatange position on long run.

Metaphysical theories go beyond what studies, researches can prove through material reality, so it's hard to assert the validity of any of those theories, which end becoming just beliefs passed from generation to generation in more superstitious and traditional communities around the world.

Can you give the context for this phrase because it varies on the game it was use. In blackjack, We use flow of card as the predetermined result if there’s no changes on the seat playing on the table.

For example, You are destined to lose x10 if there will be no other player joined since the cards is arranged the way it is. So we usually destroy the flow of card when we are experiencing losing streak by adding 1 seat or more so that the card distribution will change.

I don't think that's really generic gamblers who do that but specific gamblers that are counting cards in blackjack. And that would mean disturbance when you are count the cards, or change in counting conditions. Like when more players entering into the game in the middle could distrurb the "flow of cards". I never asked specifics, but i knew a card counter, and what i picked up is he used that term when ever composition of rest of the cards become unfavorable for his scheme.

If other gamblers are using that term, i think it's just more of superstitious belief or another description for luck, like that cards are or are not in right order or on their favor.

This is my first time hearing such a phrase - I did a quick search online to see if perhaps there are others who might have posted the same phrases but nothing came up.

I guess only a few gamblers use this phrase if not it would have been among lists of gambling slang that are present online. I'd would have to put this thread on my watch list so that I'd be able to follow and see if anyone knows the meaning of the phrase.

I have basic knowledge on card counting so I knew that if someone sit on the table and play along with you while you’re counting there’s no way that can affect your count since you are just counting cards on the table regardless if it’s yours or not to determine the EV for the game based on the remaining card on the shoe.

I believe the flow of cards is what you mention about when player sit and distract your game. Like hitting another cards while the dealer should be bust if he didn’t hit more cards and just stand.

There’s a lot of scenario like on blackjack when you are playing with noob blackjack player that doesn’t know the rules.

I will surmised that it has something to do with card counting? Could be just follow the flow of the cards, meaning if card counters are in the break to get a good card then they should followed it. Or if you are not a card counter, then bet on how you see it, if you think that you are going to win, then it will come, "the flow of the cards" might be in your favor and so take advantage of it.

So there  could be a lot of meaning from it, and it could not be only applied to blackjack, but any other card games like baccarat.

That is like "winning patterns", just my personal opinion since I've never encountered people talking like this.
But whatever it means or something it weighs a lot but there is one thing we know for sure that card games are pure luck-based games. Some gamblers may say there is a card trick but I don't think this happens in casinos as they are protecting their reputation.

We never hear this phrase often because this never meant anything serious. It is probably just in the mind of a gambler who believes what it means for them. Because for me, I gamble without thinking about cheating or anything, I am just focus on what I'm doing.

Uncommon phrase to be used, it correlates with someone's beliefs in their wins which comes from the mistake done by others or basically let the luck decides who is the winner.

I see lot of users mentioning that it's related to counting cards but as far as I noticed it's more of superstition nothing unethical practices.

 "the flow of the cards".

Could it be the tendering of cards at the end of the game to indicate winning or something to that. I have not really gotten a grasp of what it actually means. I checked on google but it is not giving something self explanatory however pointing to blackjack. Maybe real card players would give direction to this.

I do not play Blackjack, but it is likely that since there are many gamblers who do not recognize the phrase, maybe it is a phrase that is common among people in a particular region around the OP.
Some slangs for some activities are still local, and the true meaning only recognized by the locals or people around the locals.

I've always been puzzled by this phrase, "the flow of the cards". I've heard it from serious gamblers, but I've never really gotten the chance to ask them what it actually means. I am therefore turning to you guys to ask, what the do gamblers mean when they say it?

*The context for the phrase in which it is used is blackjack.

It should be on some luck based related thing.Maybe they want to not stop the game and even in difficult situations when they are playing poker they let the flow of the cards go and not get mad at it.Some may say it as something like they are waiting for such the flow of the cards can benefit them and make them win a big hand,they usually go all in during such hand that favors them for a win like having 4 aces or the royal flush which rarely lose the hand,only 4 aces can rarely lose the hand against the royal flush while the royal flush always win the game if I am not mistaken in Texas holdem poker.In blackjack is the same they wait for the best hands for them to benefit the player against the dealer,in here maybe it is in the context let the flow of cards go so they can count the cards and get a winning hand.

"the flow of the cards".
Probably has something to do with card counting and having gut feeling to have an advantage on the game and end up winning. Same thing I guess with "listen to your heart" wherein it should not be literally heard by you. Not really into card games but I cannot cite other explanation than to card count or predict the next cards to be dealt in Blackjack. We all have different beliefs but all of it is aiming for us to win however, nothing will be guaranteed except for the tendency of losing in the long run; that's just how gambling works in general. But there are people claiming to be really good with predictions or gambling as a whole. Well, they could really be but the bottomline here is that not all people could do the same thing, meaning, not all people would win with certainty no matter what strategy you are using. If winning is destined, then it will just happen out of your luck and fate.

I've always been puzzled by this phrase, "the flow of the cards". I've heard it from serious gamblers, but I've never really gotten the chance to ask them what it actually means. I am therefore turning to you guys to ask, what the do gamblers mean when they say it?

*The context for the phrase in which it is used is blackjack.

Perhaps what is meant by "card flow" in the game of blackjack, this expression refers to the time when a player feels that the cards he gets are quite profitable or more. And when a player feels that his position is very profitable because he gets a flow of good cards, or gets strong cards, namely cards that have a consistently high value. Of course, this can increase a person's chances of winning in each gambling session. However, on the other hand, if you get a stream of unfavorable cards, or weak cards in a row, it might be quite difficult for him to win the game in each session, which of course will make someone quite frustrated with these cards. they're dealing with. he understands.

However, it is important to understand that “card flow” is more of a personal feeling and does not necessarily reflect mathematical truth. Although the cards played can influence the final outcome, the long-term probability of blackjack remains constant.

So it can be concluded that In this context, the “card flow” that gamblers might refer to is most likely related to the internal feelings in the game itself. These feelings are determined by whether they believe that the cards dealt to them are profitable or detrimental to them.

I do not play Blackjack, but it is likely that since there are many gamblers who do not recognize the phrase, maybe it is a phrase that is common among people in a particular region around the OP.
Some slangs for some activities are still local, and the true meaning only recognized by the locals or people around the locals.
This is a blackjack thing and it is only professional gamblers with many years of experience in blackjack that would be able to give the correct explanation to the phrase which the OP is trying to understand. I am not a fan of blackjack but I know about this because when I searched for the keywords on Google, the first result was a blackjack reddit thread. While some replies say it is something superstitious others say it is something that is a variant of a theory in gambling. The OP and anyone who is interested in learning more about this phrase should check this reddit out - https://www.reddit.com/r/blackjack/comments/ihzowj/flow_of_the_cards/?rdt=59718

Basically it means that the cards are running good for you.  Like in poker when the cards are flowing, means you have been winning alot playing any 2 cards.

damn, I guess I am not that into blackjack, It's my first time hearing about it so I did some quick reading on Google to try and understand what it meant and I am not sure if I understand it completely despite reading several discussion on reddit about it, but from what I see it seems like the "flow of cards" is a superstition some(or maybe a lot) of blackjack players believe.

Flow of the card, just like the phrase, Gambler's means those that gamble on risk speculations and jackpots, this are consistent gamblers meaning those blackjack king's that gamble almost every day or in an interval.


I believe the world Gamblers could primarily means, those that bet on any games or play it themselves and related to casinos.


Just as the card flow, and other terms that is associated with that such phrase.
I may be wrong anyways and I will be glad to read new things regarding this phrase.

I have rarely heard about that saying in the context of blackjack, probably because I do not play with others. Though, I have my own interpretation of the meaning of it.
I think it is about noticing some pattern during the play, the flow of the cards could be related to whether the cards wants you to lose or win. It is another way to say someone is having either good or bad luck during an specific session.
Because of the human nature on trying to find patterns with gambling, we attribute those pseudo-patterns to anything which may make sense for us. In this case, it is giving some awareness or power to the same cards we use to play or gamble.
Here in South America we have other Spanish expression which could be equivalent to it, but this one is an specific one which could have originated from a different part of the world, like the United States or Europe.
Regardless of whatever you think about that saying/expression and it's validity, the important thing is never to forget the true random nature of a game like blackjack and to remember there are no actual patterns in gambling.
Good luck !

I guess it's a superstitions of being a lucky with cards, or as someone said the card counting. As you will know it's flow in every shuffle of cards. Can't find enough answer about it when searching online except on reddit threads which are in opinionated answers too. 

Next time when you heard someone talking about it, don't be shy to ask and tell us his/her answers too  Grin
