I have gambled on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this method or beat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never back out. It gets very fun on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this method! And a few days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet $5
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original $5 bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Wager $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of $80
Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet
Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 wager
If you left at this instance you would be up $315 !!
It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
