I have played countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this method or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent 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 payout paid to me and I bet the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then leave 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a couple of days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first 5 dollar wager
Wager 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Wager 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the original $10 bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original $20 bet
Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is hard 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.
