I have gambled on millions of hands of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of money at 21. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent 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 original wager 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 payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a number of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $10 wager
Bet $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Bet 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager $40
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 1 hundred and 60 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
