I have played countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have played online blackjack, 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 bankroll at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or beat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original bet again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very exciting at times. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years back with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a few days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Bet five dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet
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 original 40 dollar bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
