I have wagered on countless of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of funds at 21. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 win 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very strict and never back out. It gets very enjoyable sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years back with $750 after 30 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $10 wager
Bet ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 wager
Wager $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $40 wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of $80
Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the end result will not be the same.
