you know.. when you lose a hand, do you double your wager on the next hand till you win?
It seems to work for me.. Others?

If you've got the bankroll..sure..but think about this:
Living by that rule, on $25/hand..if you've lost 5 hands in a row let's say..you will eventually be risking $800 on the 6th hand to be +$25 overall.
I like the 1-1-3-1 strategy. One bet, win, one bet, win, 3 bets, win, back to one bet. You lost the 3rd bet and you've only lost $25. You make the 'pass', win 3 in a row following this strategy, and you've made 500% profit.
Mathematically, your best odds are to win 3 in a row in BJ. The odds drop off significantly after 3 in a row from what I read..
Of course..odds are against you to begin with..and keep in mind this does not take into consideration splits or double-downs..
