I have wagered on millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have wagered on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of bankroll at twenty-one. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial 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 4 times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a number of months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can relinquish much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you witness wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar wager

Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of $160
Bet $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this instance you would be up $315 !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
