I have played millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have played 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 a lot of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it almost impossible to beat the game.

I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 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 wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

Bet 5 dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the original $5 bet

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

Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original ten dollar bet

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

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

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

Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar bet

Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

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

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

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

If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!

It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
