I have enjoyed countless of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit 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 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 bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the wager back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very enjoyable at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this technique! And a number of weeks ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar bet

Wager $80
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of $160
Wager $160

If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
