I have bet on countless of hands of blackjack. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never back out. It gets very exciting sometimes. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a number of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a number of months ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must understand that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial $5 wager
Bet five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar wager
Wager 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Wager $20
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
