I have bet on countless of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have gambled on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won't get flush with this method or beat the casino, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of runs. When you're hot your hot, and when you are not you're NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don't win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Once I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a few days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.

Wager $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet

Wager 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar

Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager

Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of twenty dollar

Bet twenty dollar

Wager 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar

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

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

Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager

Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar

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

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

It's hard to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
