I have enjoyed countless of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at 21. The casinos have made it almost impossible to defeat the casino.

I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or beat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a few years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this method! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you see playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

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

Bet $5
Leave $5 paid to you for a total bet of $10

Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial $10 wager

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

Bet twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the first twenty dollar wager

Wager $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar

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

Bet 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager

Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 bet

If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!

It’s iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
