I have wagered on countless of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of money at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that blackjack appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial 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 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 bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of months ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10
Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet
Wager $10
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager
Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $40 bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
