I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of bankroll at twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that vingt-et-un 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 vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager 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 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager

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

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

Bet 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar

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

Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of $40

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

Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar

Wager $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar bet

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 bet

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

It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
