I have enjoyed millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that 21 appears to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I lose again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original bet again. If I win this hand I then leave 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 win 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 do not win I return the bet back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a couple of years ago with $750 after 20 minutes using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.

If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
