I have enjoyed countless of hands of chemin de fer. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost an abundance of cash at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it almost impossible to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy 21. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the wager back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Luxor a number of years back with $750 after 45 minutes using this tactic! And a few months ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Bet ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet
Bet 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager $40
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave $40 paid to you for a total wager of $80
Wager $80
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Wager eighty dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
