I have played millions of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of cash at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that 21 appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play 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 4 times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a number of weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial 5 dollar bet
Wager five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you departed at this instance you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
