I have played millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have enjoyed online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of cash at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout 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 wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years back with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you see betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar

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

Wager $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

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

Bet 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $40

Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $40 bet

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

Bet $80
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager

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

Bet $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet

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

It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
