I have played millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking 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 short while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at twenty-one. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this method or beat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager 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 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this tactic! And a number of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of $10
Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $10 wager
Bet 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20
Wager $20
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Bet $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up $315 !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
