Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the casino.

I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this tactic or beat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the action back down to the original amount.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a few days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you see playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.

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

Wager $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar

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

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

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

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

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

Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar

Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the original 80 dollar wager

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar bet

If you departed at this point you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!

It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
