I have enjoyed countless of hands of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have played 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 cash at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.

I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 win 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 bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a few weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.

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

Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10

Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager

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

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

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

Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the initial $40 wager

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

Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 wager

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

Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 1 hundred and 60 dollar wager

If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
