I have enjoyed countless of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have wagered on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of cash at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets extremely enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this method! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet

Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar

Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
