I have played millions of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have bet on online blackjack, 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 money at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a number of years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a number of months ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 wager
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $40 wager
Wager $40
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the first $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
