Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have played countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of bankroll at 21. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the idea that 21 appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 game.

Bet $5
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original $5 bet

Wager 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar

Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar wager

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

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

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

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

Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total wager of $80

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

Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160

Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 wager

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

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 wager or the end result will not be the same.
