I have bet on millions of rounds of 21. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of bankroll at twenty-one. The casinos have made it almost impossible to beat the casino.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original 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 succeed 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 keep 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 back out. It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers 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 left a $5 table at the Paris a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this method! And a number of days ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Bet ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar bet
Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of $40
Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the original forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
