I have gambled on millions of rounds of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of funds at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or defeat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that chemin de fer 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 chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win 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 return the action back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very fun sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a number of weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Bet $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of $40
Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is hard to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
