I have bet on millions of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. 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 hit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play 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 four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 35 mins using this method! And a few days ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first $5 bet
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar bet
Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar bet
Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
