I have gambled on countless of rounds of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.

I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I hit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original bet again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original bet on the table. If I win again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original value.

I am very strict and never back out. It gets very exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in series your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years ago with $750 after 35 minutes using this method! And a couple of months ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!

You need to understand that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar table.

Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the first $5 wager

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

Wager 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the first $10 bet

Bet $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of $20

Wager $20
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager

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

Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager

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

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

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

Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $160 wager

If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!

It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
