I have gambled on millions of hands of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or defeat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar bet
Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 40 dollar wager
Wager $40
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you left at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen 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 bet or the end result won’t be the same.
