I have bet on millions of rounds of blackjack. I began working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to beat the house.

I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get loaded with this method or defeat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is built on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as 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 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 four times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original value.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this method! And a number of weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 game.

Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

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

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

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

Bet 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 20 dollar wager

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

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

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

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

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

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

If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!

It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
