I have played millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of funds at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the payout paid to me and I wager 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a number of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this technique! And a number of months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can squander a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
