I have played millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this method or defeat the casino, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is centered on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit 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 bet on the table. If I succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very fun on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Wager $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original $5 bet
Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10
Wager $10

Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Wager $160

If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
