I have enjoyed millions of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of money at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get flush with this method or defeat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the idea that 21 appears to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you see betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the first $5 wager
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager
Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first eighty dollar wager
Bet $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 bet
If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your bet or the final result will not be the same.
