I have wagered on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout 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 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 bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you see gamble 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-out to you, leave the original five dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Wager $10
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 bet
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first $80 bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
