I have enjoyed millions of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as 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 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the initial $5 bet
Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar bet
Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
