I have gambled on countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is built on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the payout 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this technique! And a couple of days ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial $5 wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid to you for a total wager of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Bet $40
Take $40 paid to you, leave the original $40 bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 bet
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
