I have bet on countless of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you're not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I don't win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original bet 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. 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 great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You need to understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

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