I have gambled on millions of rounds of blackjack. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of bankroll at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the game.

I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the winnings paid to me and I bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original value.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this technique! And a few days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar table.

Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 5 dollar wager

Bet five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar

Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original ten dollar wager

Wager ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Wager $20
Take $20 paid to you, leave the first twenty dollar bet

Bet $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager

Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar

Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the first $80 bet

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

Wager $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial one hundred and 60 dollar wager

If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!

It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
