I have played millions of hands of vingt-et-un. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at vingt-et-un. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings 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 succeed 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 continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years back with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can say good-bye to 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 wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the first $5 wager

Wager 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar

Wager 10 dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the original $10 wager

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

Wager $160

If you left at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
