I have played millions of hands of 21. I started working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have played 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 spent a lot of bankroll at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that 21 seems to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in sequence 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 60 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the first $10 wager
Bet $10
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original $20 wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
