I have enjoyed millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have bet on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of cash at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I hit 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!

You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.

Wager five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager

Wager 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

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

Bet forty dollar

Wager $80
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet

Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar

Bet $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet

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

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