I have played countless of rounds of 21. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or beat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this method! And a number of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar bet
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Bet $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar bet
Wager $40
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $80
Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial 1 hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
