I have played countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.

I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this method or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

Wager 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar

Bet ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the original ten dollar bet

Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar

Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager

Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $40

Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager

Wager 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $80

Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 wager

Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet $160
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 wager

If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
