I have enjoyed countless of rounds of 21. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of funds at twenty-one. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still like the game and bet on a frequent 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 flush with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 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 keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets extremely thrilling sometimes. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a few years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you notice gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.

Bet five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar bet

Wager $5
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar

Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet

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

Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $20 bet

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

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

Wager 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

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

Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $160

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

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

It is herculean to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
