I have bet on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of bankroll at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or defeat the casino, however you will experience a lot of fun. This method is founded on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial wager 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original amount.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a few months ago in Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can say good-bye to much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.
Wager $5
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of $10
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the first $10 wager
Bet $10
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar
Bet twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial forty dollar bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of $80
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet
Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $160
Bet 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original 160 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is hard to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
