I have bet on countless of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling halls 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 spent a lot of money at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager 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 win 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a number of years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this method! And a number of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the first five dollar bet
Wager 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Bet $10
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar wager
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original 20 dollar bet
Wager $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of $80
Bet $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 80 dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
