I have gambled on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to defeat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager
Wager 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $10 bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $20 bet
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of $40
Wager $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 wager
Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Bet $80
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the original one hundred and 60 dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
