I have enjoyed millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have wagered on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of cash at 21. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that 21 appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!

I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original bet 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a couple of months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
