Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have gambled on millions of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of cash at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.

I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or beat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the fact that 21 seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum 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 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 do not win I lower the wager back down to the original value.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. 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 Wynn a few years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a number of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.

Wager five dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original $5 wager

Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar

Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager

Bet $10
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar

Bet $20
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager

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

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original $40 bet

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

Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet

Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar

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

If you departed at this instance you would be up $315 !!

It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
