I have bet on countless of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this method or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that blackjack seems to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Once 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this method! And a couple of days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 5 dollar wager
Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Bet $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the first $10 wager
Wager ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet
Bet $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $40 wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 80 dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first one hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
