I have bet on countless of hands of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this method or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a game of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I hit 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 wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely fun sometimes. 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 streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you see playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $5 wager
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original $10 bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the first $40 wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
