I have wagered on countless of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or beat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is built on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you see betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the initial 5 dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 10 dollar wager
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Wager $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $80 bet
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 bet
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
