I have bet on countless of rounds of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have enjoyed online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the casino.

I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or beat the house, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that blackjack seems to be a match of runs. When you are on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original bet 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 keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original bet.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a few years back with $750 after 30 mins using this technique! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can give away much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar game.

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

Wager 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10

Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet

Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager

Bet twenty dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40

Wager $40
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager

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

Wager $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 1 hundred and 60 dollar wager

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

It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
