I have bet on millions of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of funds at twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win 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 do not win I lower the bet back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a couple of days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager $10
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager
Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first twenty dollar bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 bet
Bet forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $80
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original $80 wager
Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
