I have played millions of hands of twenty-one. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or beat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that 21 appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t 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. Whenever I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 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 action back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a number 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 weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the runs you see wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

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

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

Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar wager

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

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

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

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

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

Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 80 dollar wager

Bet $80
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager

If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

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