I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have wagered 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 cash at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to beat the casino.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have bet on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is built on the fact that 21 appears to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win 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 lose I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a couple of days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet

Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you departed at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
