I have bet on millions of rounds of blackjack. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have wagered on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of funds at twenty-one. The casinos have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or defeat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the action back down to the original bet.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets extremely fun on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a few days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see gamble this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

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

Wager five dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar

Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar wager

Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager

Wager $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of $40

Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the first forty dollar wager

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

Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $80 wager

Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 160 dollar

Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original one hundred and sixty dollar bet

If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
