I have wagered on millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that 21 appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Wager ten dollar

Bet 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $160
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original one hundred and sixty dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and drop your bet or the final result will not be the same.
