I have wagered on millions of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of cash at 21. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that blackjack seems to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet 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 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a few months ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the streaks you witness playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 5 dollar bet
Bet five dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet
Wager twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the original one hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
