I have bet on millions of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of bankroll at blackjack. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that blackjack appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the initial wager 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 four times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years ago with $750 after 45 minutes using this method! And a few months ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 table.

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