I have bet on countless of rounds of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of money at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win 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. Once I profit I take the payout 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 bet on the table. If I win 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 betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very fun on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a few years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this technique! And a number of days ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original $5 bet
Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10
Bet $10
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Wager ten dollar

Wager 20 dollar

Bet 40 dollar

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