I have gambled on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at 21. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I hit 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 bet 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this method! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You need to comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet

Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10

Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet

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

Bet $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first twenty dollar bet

Bet $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of $40

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager

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

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

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

Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original $160 bet

If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

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