    Here's how you make money in blackjack. Once you win a hand the next hand put down 1/4th of your previous winning. If you win the next hand stay at the same bet if you lose double it. Now if you win go back to 1/4th if you lose stay at 1/2. Only go back to the same amount you started with after 5th hand. This formula will make you win big in the long run.

    If you believe a betting system like this actually pays off in the long run, then you are a fool.

    The only way to possibly gain a very small advantage over the casino when playing blackjack is to learn to count cards and then increase your wager when the cards are in your favor. Counting cards is not easy or enjoyable for most people. The casino may also ban you from playing if they believe you are counting cards. Also keep in mind that you need to find a game with player friendly rules. The casinos in recent years have made it more and more difficult for the player to win.

    Learn basic blackjack strategy(which is not really a betting system) and just enjoy the game.

    BETTING SYSTEMS DO NOT WORK.

    You bet $20 at even money? Sounds like your friend is a bit slow.
