Bowl Streaker!

I have bet on countless of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of money at 21. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the game.

I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or beat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings 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 4 times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can relinquish much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.

Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original five dollar bet

Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10

Bet ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager

Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Wager 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar bet

Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar

Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar bet

Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of $80

Wager eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet

Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of $160

Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 bet

If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!

It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
