I have wagered on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of funds at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.

I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that 21 seems to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a few years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

Bet $80

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

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 wager

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

It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
