I have bet on millions of rounds of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of funds at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the casino.

I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or beat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager 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 bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You have to understand that you can say good-bye to 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 guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.

Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager

Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar

Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager

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

Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager

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

Bet $40
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original forty dollar bet

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

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

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

Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 1 hundred and sixty dollar bet

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

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