My Gambling Hall Twenty-one Type Game
I have wagered on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings 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 wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings 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 lose I return the bet back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the first $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $20 wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 1 hundred and 60 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and lower your wager or the end result will not be the same.
