I have wagered on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of cash at 21. The gambling halls have made it almost impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this method or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 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 continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the bet back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a number of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand 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 streaks you witness wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
