I have bet on countless of rounds of 21. I began working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online blackjack, 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 money at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is built on the idea that blackjack seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy twenty-one. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial 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 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Bet $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $10 bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Bet $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first $20 bet
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
