I have enjoyed millions of rounds of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can relinquish much 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 guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet
Wager 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
