[QUOTE="Cedric, post: 1087664, member: 2044"] Ichabod is right...get to be really good at Texas Hold'em and go to Vegas to play that. As for Blackjack betting strategies...I will be the first to admit that mine is "not" the best (in fact, I prefer craps over blackjac)...but I still like my blackjack strategy. First hand you bet $5.00. If you lose, you just keep betting $5.00. If you win, take the winnings plus another $5.00 and add them together for a $15.00 bet. If you lose, go back to $5.00. If you win, take your winnings and add them to the bet and take back your second $5.00. So you bet $25.00 and at this point have $5.00 invested. If you win, keep the $25.00 you win and leave a $25.00 bet. Repeat twice. If you win a 3rd time in a row, up the bet by $15.00 more dollars and keep $10.00. This strategy tries to acknowledge the fact that you will lose more often then you win. But hopes that your wins and losses are going in streaks. If you can manage to string together 5 wins in a row now and then, you can make up for a number of losses and get some money back that way. But if you are in a win one, lose one slump it sucks. My craps strategy is entirely different...but I don't think I could explain it here...and I doubt anyone would want to hear it. Cedric [/QUOTE]
