I have wagered on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of funds at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get flush with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the fact that 21 seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial wager 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the wager back down to the original value.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years ago with $750 after 60 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

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

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

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

Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20

Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet

Wager $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original forty dollar bet

Bet $40
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager

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

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 bet

If you departed at this point you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

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