I have gambled on millions of hands of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online 21, 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 twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 win 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 wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this method! And a couple of days ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you witness wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the first $5 wager
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of $40
Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the original forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Bet $160
Take $160 paid to you, leave the initial $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 will happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
