I have bet on countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of money at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original 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 winnings 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 don’t win I lower the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting sometimes. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a couple of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar bet
Bet $40
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the original one hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
