I have played millions of rounds of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of funds at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this method! And a few days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You must understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $5 wager
Wager five dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar wager
Wager ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 bet
Bet forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
