I have played millions of rounds of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have enjoyed online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of bankroll at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or defeat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This method is based on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever 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 payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a few years back with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the streaks you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager

Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original one hundred and 60 dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
