Bowl Streaker!

I have gambled on countless of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of bankroll at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get flush with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that blackjack appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once 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 wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a number of years back with $750 after 30 mins using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.

Bet $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

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

Wager 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the first $10 wager

Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar

Bet twenty dollar

Bet 40 dollar

Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar

Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial 80 dollar wager

Wager eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 wager

If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!

It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
