I have enjoyed millions of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to defeat the house.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I bet 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. Whenever I win 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a number of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $40 wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
