I have gambled on millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of bankroll at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings 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 bet 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this method! And a couple of months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you notice gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the first ten dollar wager
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet
Wager $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet
Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar wager
Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
