Bowl Streaker!

I have wagered on millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have wagered on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of funds at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or beat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a few months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!

You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.

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

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

Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet

Bet ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of $20

Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the first $20 bet

Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of $40

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

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

Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the original eighty dollar bet

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

Bet $160
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original $160 bet

If you left at this point you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!

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