  1. I can't just sit here quietly. You actually started with a progressive system that I use but you really need to employ basic strategy, double when you should (especially when dealer has a low card), and yes I saw your comment that you just have fun and can afford to lose this kind of money but for those other players who are interested in this progressive system and treat the game seriously (I posted this on another YouTube video, in case you've seen it), then read on:

    (Let's just assume one is betting $10 and not the $40 shown in this video). I have used the following progressive bet system for years; it adds some fun to BlackJack. Great system because you never lose more than $10 but can win quite a bit. After you have won twice, none of your money is on the table and you are even ahead by $5 so it is to your advantage to just keep adding $5 for each win up to a cap of half your starting stack ($50), just in case you have to double and/or split. This risks nothing and capitalizes on the 7+ win streaks (odds ~175:1 but they will occur). Even if you have a multiple split/doubles, and lose, you take the loses from your playing money first then your profits and almost never have to reach into your wallet to cover a bet. Also, in order for this system to work, I agree that once the original stack is exhausted ($100), you quit. But every time that you make more than the original stack, all extra goes to the side and is never touched again (except in extreme cases of the aforementioned splits/doubles with a large stack). So when you are winning, all monies go back to the Stack first and then the rest is basically out of play. Once you lose, you start out again at the Starting Stack and hopefully have put some money away to the side. This works well with real chips but good luck doing the mental gymnastics when playing online.

    Initial Bet: 10 Starting Stack: 100 Money in bank to cover 20 lost days of playing (3 sessions/day) (min.): 6000
    (Min. bet x 10) (Starting Stack x 60)

    Bet System: $10 then increase bet by half original bet (thus $5) each win until you reach half of Starting Stack (thus $50). On any loss, start again at Initial bet

    Initial Bet Win 1 Win 2 Win 3 Win 4 Win 5 Win 6 Win 7 Win 8 …
    10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Cap this at 50
    -10 -5 5 20 40 65 95 130 170 All future wins are just gravy

    Notes:
    – Memorize and use basic betting strategy and know what tables are better for players, i.e. does dealer stand on all 17s?
    – If you fall below the money needed to play at Initial Bet level then move down a level, i.e. $10 to $9, and vice versa
    – Break even point for this system is 3 wins and 2 losses
    – Uneven Initial Bets: most casinos won't let you bet, say $2.50 on a $5 Initial Bet win so just add $2 then next win add $3
    – Pick a number of maximum sessions you will play per day, say 3 or 4, to minimize losing streaks
    – Expect losing streaks, they will happen, so ensure to have a bank balance that can support them
    – Record all wins and losses on a spread sheet so you know exactly how you are really doing over time, and
    – There is no such thing as a winning system but this progressive betting style adds some fun and capitalizes on good streaks. Also don't forget that BlackJack is supposed to be fun, therefore play for the Entertainment Value (EV) over just playing to make money (yeah, good luck with that).

    It's up to you but I treat a win with BlackJack, splits and doubles as just one win and pocket the extra winnings (after topping up the Stack to original amount, of course). Never take insurance nor split tens (exception: you are a world renowned card counter), and never play on a 6:5 pay on BlackJack (only play on 3:2). You may also wish to adjust basic strategy by using rule of 2 or 3 for doubles, only splitting 8s up to a dealer 8, and always hitting a 16 versus a dealer 7+, or maybe not against a dealer 10, etc. but always, always, always play the same way every time whether your stack is $10 or $50 (in this example). Good Luck!

  2. this dealer hia happy i swear to godddd.. if his in my face and am gamblinf i will broake his teeth

  3. Why the dealer is not happy ? It looks like someone is bothering him after you are winning more than 1 thousand…

  4. when they stayed on 15 & 16 the 16 guy wouldve had 18 the 15 guy wouldve havd 21 lmfaoooo pussies dont play black jack if you scared to hit!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. "we need to call the security guy to get rid of you, because you win all the money" xD hahahaha that was great

  6. Most of these clown online casinos don't check for blackjack when a 10 or facecard is showing, making doubles foolish as you will lose everything if he turns over a blackjack. I am checking out a site now that always checks and always offers surrender, double after splits etc. Still playing with the houses money, want to confirm that the cashout process goes smoothly. If it does, I will leave a link for it.
