I have played countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then leave 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a few years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give up much 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 chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $5 bet
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Wager $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $40
Bet 40 dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Wager $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
