I have bet on countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I profit 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 succeed 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 continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this method! And a few months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Bet $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this point you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
