My Gambling Den Vingt-et-un Variation Game
I have bet on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of funds at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it almost impossible to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I win 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 bet on the table. If I succeed 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 keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the wager back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a few months ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.

Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager

Leave $5 paid to you for a total bet of $10

Wager $160

If you departed at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
