I have wagered on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at 21. The casinos have made it almost impossible to beat the game.

I still like the game and play 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 will not get flush with this method or defeat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 win again I take the payout 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 return the wager back down to the original bet.

I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original $5 bet

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

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

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

Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager

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

Wager $40
Take $40 paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet

Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar

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

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

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial one hundred and 60 dollar bet

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

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