I have enjoyed millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next 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 keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager 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 bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 10 dollar wager

Wager $40

Bet eighty dollar

Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
