I have enjoyed countless of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet 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 four times my original bet. I keep wagering 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 "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager
Bet $20

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
