I have bet on countless of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of funds at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have bet on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this tactic! And a few days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $80
Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
