I have gambled on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet 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 all kinds of bankroll at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to beat the house.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years back with $750 after 35 mins using this technique! And a few months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial $5 bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $10 bet
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40
Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
