I have wagered on millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar game.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Wager $10
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original $20 bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first 40 dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Wager eighty 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 original 1 hundred and 60 dollar wager
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
