I have enjoyed millions of hands of 21. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of money at 21. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this method or defeat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager 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 four times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you witness wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original $5 wager
Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Wager 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 bet
Bet $40
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
