I have gambled on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at blackjack. The gambling halls 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 type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings 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 succeed 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Wager $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original $10 wager
Wager 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the first 1 hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
