Bowl Streaker!

I have gambled on millions of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of money at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.

I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings 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 win 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 keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original bet.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this method! And a few weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the runs you witness playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager

Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar

Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager

Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar

Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager

Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar

Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar wager

Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of $80

Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet

Wager eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of $160

Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial one hundred and sixty dollar wager

If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!

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