Sometimes it is worth taking risks at gambling, and this is certainly right when it came to Don Johnson’s record wins at Blackjack. A rebate from the casino was the key to his success as it allowed him to wager $100,000 a hand at the blackjack table.
From December, until this April, Johnson had bagged a total of $4.23 million at Caesars Atlantic City and more than $4 million at Borgata. Additionally, he won another $5.8 million in a 12 hour session at Tropicana.
He mentioned that he modified his playing strategy before investing on the table and that he was able to wager up to $100,000 a hand owing to a rebate. Johnson did not talk about other rules, but for the fact that the dealer utilized a six deck shoe on soft 17. He said that the new rules decreased the house edge to 0.253%
The real good news was that he had a deal with the casino that it would reimburse 20% of his losses if it came up to $500,000. “You’d never lose the million. If you got to minus-five hands (an overall loss of $500,000), you would stop and take your 20 percent discount. You’d only owe them $400,000.”
He said that he divided a pair and re-divided four hands in all, and three of them doubled. This means, his initial $100,000 became $700,000!
