I have wagered on millions of hands of 21. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have wagered on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.

I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack seems to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a few months ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original $5 bet

Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the initial ten dollar wager

Wager $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar

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

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

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

Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar

Wager 80 dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $80 bet

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

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

If you departed at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!

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