I have bet on countless of hands of 21. I began working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have gambled on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this method or defeat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep wagering 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 "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a few days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.

Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet

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

Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first $10 wager

Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar

Bet $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 bet

Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $40

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

Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total bet of $80

Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar wager

Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet

If you departed at this point you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!

It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
