I have wagered on millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that 21 appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial 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 win 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 keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely fun on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar wager
Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial 40 dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial one hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
