I have gambled on countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have played online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost a lot of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it nearly impossible to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you are on fire your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the successive 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 keep in play 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 four times my original bet. I continue 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 never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a couple of months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can squander a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you witness betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Wager five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Wager $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is hard to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
