My Gambling Den Chemin de fer Variety Game
I have bet on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of money at blackjack. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win 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. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a few years back with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a couple of days ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Bet $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the first $20 bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $40
Bet $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $80
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the end result will not be the same.
