I have played countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of bankroll at twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this method or beat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is based on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then leave 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 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 do not win I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely fun at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you witness gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original $40 bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first one hundred and 60 dollar wager
If you left at this instance 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 can’t alter and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
