I have played millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have gambled on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of cash at blackjack. The casinos 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 variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or defeat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy 21. 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 successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet 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 wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original value.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!

You have to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

Bet 5 dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

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

Wager 10 dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar

Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager

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

Bet 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $40 bet

Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 80 dollar

Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar bet

Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet

If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!

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