I have wagered on countless of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at 21. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the fact that blackjack seems to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 bet on the table. If I succeed 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 bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a few months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar wager
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first $40 bet
Wager $40
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial one hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
