I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it almost impossible to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 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 bet. I continue betting 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 strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can relinquish much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager
Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the original 1 hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
