I have gambled on millions of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of bankroll at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a few years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this technique! And a couple of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give away a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Wager $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
