I have played countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of bankroll at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout 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 win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years back with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a number of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

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

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

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

Bet 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar

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

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

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

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

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

Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager

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

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