I have enjoyed millions of rounds of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t 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 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 payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a few years ago with $750 after 45 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you notice gamble this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first ten dollar bet
Bet $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Wager $20
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar wager
Wager $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Bet $80
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 80 dollar bet
Bet $80
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
