I have played countless of hands of 21. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have played online twenty-one, 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 gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original 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 4 times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a few years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a couple of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $20
Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is hard to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
