I have gambled on countless of hands of 21. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have gambled on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it almost impossible to defeat the house.

I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this tactic or beat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager 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 succeed 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 continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

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

It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your bet or the final result will not be the same.
