I have wagered on millions of hands of 21. I started working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have played online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of bankroll at 21. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original 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 win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very exciting at times. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the runs you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.

It’s hard to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
