I have played millions of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or beat the house, however you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager 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 wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a number of years back with $750 after 20 mins using this technique! And a few months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you see gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10
Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar wager
Wager $10
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the first $20 wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of $40
Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the original forty dollar bet
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 wager
Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
