I have enjoyed millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of cash at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation 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, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is centered on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give away much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.
Bet $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar bet
Bet $20
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 wager
If you left 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 mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
