I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet 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 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 win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of $10
Wager 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet $20
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager
Wager $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
