I have gambled on millions of hands of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is built on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win 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 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 don’t win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a couple of months ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you notice gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

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

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