Las Vegas 2024 Super
Bowl Streaker!

I have enjoyed countless of hands of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of bankroll at 21. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I win 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 wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

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

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

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

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

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

Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar

Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar bet

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

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

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

Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first 1 hundred and 60 dollar wager

If you departed at this moment you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!

It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
