I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of funds at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the fact that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original 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 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 amount.

I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this tactic! And a few months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can squander a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the runs you see betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

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

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

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

Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original $20 wager

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

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

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

Wager $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial $80 bet

Wager 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of 160 dollar

Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 bet

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

It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
