I have gambled on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost a lot of bankroll at 21. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the casino.

I still like the game and bet on a regular 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, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I wager with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial 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 four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a number of days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

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

Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar

Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first ten dollar wager

Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of $20

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

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

Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 40 dollar bet

Bet $40
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $80

Wager $80
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager

Bet eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar

Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original 160 dollar bet

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

It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
