I have played countless of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at 21. The casinos have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I succeed 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 bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet 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 sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this method! And a number of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can give away much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

Wager 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Wager 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet

If you left at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!

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