I have wagered on millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of funds at 21. The casinos have made it basically impossible to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet 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 wager 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 bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a few days ago in Las Vegas 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 exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you witness gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a $5 game.

Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar

Wager $80
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 80 dollar bet
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial one hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
