I have bet on millions of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that blackjack appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager 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 payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original amount.
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 realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 30 mins using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet
Wager five dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 wager
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
