Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have enjoyed millions of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of money at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is built on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit 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 wager on the table. If I win 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 continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original bet.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a couple of months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.

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

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

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

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

Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the original 20 dollar bet

Bet $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar

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

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

Wager eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 wager

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

Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager

If you departed at this point you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
