I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is built on the fact that 21 appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very exciting sometimes. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a number of months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand that you can squander a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar table.

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar

If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
