I have played millions of hands of blackjack. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to defeat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original 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 win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years ago with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a number of months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Wager 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 20 dollar bet
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Bet eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
