I have bet on millions of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have wagered on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of money at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that 21 seems to be a match of runs. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win 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 keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can relinquish much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you notice playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

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

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

Wager $10
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet

Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20

Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar bet

Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar

Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager

Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar

Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet

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

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

If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
