I have gambled on countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it basically impossible to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original 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 win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun at times. 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 runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a few months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $5 wager
Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original $10 bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
