I have bet on countless of hands of 21. I started working my way 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. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

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

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

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

Wager ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $20

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

Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar

Bet 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager

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

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

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first 1 hundred and sixty dollar wager

If you left at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
