I have wagered on countless of hands of twenty-one. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of cash at 21. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the house.

I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet 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 4 times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this tactic! And a few months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can give away much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you see betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 table.

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

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

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

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

Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager

Bet twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar

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

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

Bet 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $80 bet

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

Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 bet

If you departed at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!

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