I have played millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have gambled on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that 21 appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed 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 lower the bet back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely thrilling on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a few days ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!

You need to understand that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the initial $5 wager

Bet $80
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of $160

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 1 hundred and sixty dollar wager

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

It is hard to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your bet or the final result will not be the same.
