I have wagered on countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win 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 win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You must 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 amazed at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager

Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
