I have played millions of rounds of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of cash at blackjack. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial bet 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 bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Bet five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar wager
Bet $10
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager
Wager $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
