My Gambling Den Vingt-et-un Variation Game
I have bet on millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 succeed 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 wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks 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
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original ten dollar bet
Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 bet
Wager twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 40 dollar bet
Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Bet eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
