I have wagered on countless of rounds of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original 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 payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You need to comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

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

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

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

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

Wager 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet

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

Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager

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

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

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

Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager

If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

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