I have enjoyed countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This method is based on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a number of weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original $10 wager
Bet ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $40
Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $80
Bet $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
