I have enjoyed countless of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or beat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that blackjack seems to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager 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 four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years back with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a couple of days ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial $5 bet
Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $80
Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
