Hey everyone...its my first post.
I've gotten into BlackJack heavily the past few weeks and have prety much gotten down the basic strategy to a tee.
I'm not concerned wit counting cards....but wit betting. I came across this strategy, and I want to know what everyone thinks.
The basic strategy is....when you win...keep wit your original bet (lets say $5), but when you lose, you bet double your last bet (which would be $10 then $20 then $40) and what that does is recoupe your loses.
Example:
Lets say I start off at a $5 table and my original bet is gonna be $5. I win the first 3 hands following basic stratgy so I'm up $15. So I bet $5 on hand 4 and lose. So I bet $10 on hand 5....and I lose again. So then I bet $20 on hand 6 and lose. Then bet $40 on hand 7 and win. That will bring me back up to my $15 originally....si then I start bettin $5 again every hand til I lose. Its slow but progressive.
What does everyone think?
I've tried it at home quite a few times, and seems to work well...but I haven't tried it in a real Casino yet and it would require a pretty decent bank roll.
Please let me know what you guys think of this strategy and what's the possibilites of the most hands u can lose in a row when following basic strategy...??
Thanks
