I have wagered on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of money at 21. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this method or beat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that 21 seems to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I bet with basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original 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 succeed 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 don’t win I lower the action back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a number of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this technique! And a number of months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the runs you notice wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Wager $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar
Wager $10
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original $10 bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original $20 wager
Bet 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first 40 dollar bet
Bet 40 dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $80
Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you left at this instance you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
