Bowl Streaker!

I have wagered on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get flush with this method or beat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is built on the idea that blackjack appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I wager with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original wager 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 four times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a number of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can squander a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.

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

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

Wager ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar bet

Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of twenty dollar

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

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

Bet forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager

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

Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the original $80 bet

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $160 bet

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

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
