Bowl Streaker!

I have enjoyed millions of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have played online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is centered on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent 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 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 four times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 35 mins using this method! And a number of weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first $5 bet

Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10

Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the first ten dollar wager

Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar

Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager

Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar

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

Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $80

Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first $80 wager

Bet $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar

Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 wager

If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!

It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
