I have bet on countless of rounds of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of money at 21. The casinos have made it almost impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout 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 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 wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a few months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first $5 bet
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10
Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager
Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar bet
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager
Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $80 wager
Bet eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 1 hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
