I have played countless of hands of blackjack. I started working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Once I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original 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 win 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 continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a few days ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial 5 dollar bet
Bet five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet

Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager twenty dollar

Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the original 80 dollar wager
Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
