I have played countless of hands of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of bankroll at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it almost impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and play on a frequent basis. Over the years I have wagered on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager 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 win 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 return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years back with $750 after 35 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 game.

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

It is hard to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
