Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have gambled on millions of hands of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of money at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, 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 next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout 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 bet 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 bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You need 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 surprised at the runs you witness gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

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

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

Bet $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet

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

Wager twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 20 dollar bet

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

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

Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar

Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager

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

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

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

It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
