I have enjoyed countless of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have wagered on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of cash at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to beat the game.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the winnings 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 4 times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original amount.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a number of months ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You have to understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.

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

Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar

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

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

Wager $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar wager

Bet $20
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar

Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet

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

Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original 80 dollar wager

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager

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

It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
