I have played countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of cash at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never back out. It gets very thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years ago with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of $10

Bet 40 dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Wager 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
