I have enjoyed countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of money at 21. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to defeat the game.
I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue wagering 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 "chicken 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 $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can squander 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 kept winning at a five dollar game.
