I have wagered on millions of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of money at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still enjoy 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 certainly won’t get flush with this method or beat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea 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 gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a few months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave $5 paid to you for a total bet of $10
Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the original $40 wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of $160
Wager $160
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
