Anyone ever used this black jack strategy you start out betting table min say 5 bucks if you lose you double it to 10 bucks if you lose double that to 20 bucks and so on until you win then you start back a 5 bucks it sounds like it would work im going to vegas next month if you have tried this please let me know if it works thanks for reading

I've never been willing to try this strategy. For a couple of reasons. First, it presents an upside-down risk to reward ratio. Using this strategy, the most you can ever win is $5. But at some point you may be betting $160 or more to win that $5. Second, I never have a large enough bank roll to make sure I'm going to win my money back. If you lose 5 hands in a row, you will have to risk $160 AND you've already lost $155. That's a $315 bet that you won't lose that 6th hand and you're only going to win $5 if you do. Doesn't seem worth it to me.
