I have gambled on millions of rounds of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at twenty-one. The casinos have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or beat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 succeed 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you witness betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet
Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $40 bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar 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 herculean to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
