I have played millions of rounds of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling dens 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 while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of money at blackjack. The casinos have made it almost impossible to defeat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you're not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don't win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don't win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial 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 win 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 keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years back with $750 after 20 mins using this method! And a couple of days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the streaks you see playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet

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

Wager $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 10 dollar wager

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

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

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

Wager forty dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager

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

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

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

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

If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!

It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can't deviate and lower your wager or the end result won't be the same.
