I have enjoyed millions of hands of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have enjoyed 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 funds at twenty-one. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.

I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this tactic or beat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that blackjack appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue wagering 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 disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a number of days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You need to comprehend that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $5 wager

Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar

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

Wager twenty dollar

Wager $40

Bet forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $80

Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet

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

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

If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!

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