I have enjoyed millions of rounds of blackjack. I started working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have played online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still like the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this method or defeat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that 21 seems to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you witness betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial 80 dollar wager
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and lower your wager or the end result will not be the same.
