I have played countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have played online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of bankroll at blackjack. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the house.
I still enjoy the game and bet on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a type of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the fact that blackjack appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the action back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not back out. It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 30 mins using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can give up a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the runs you see betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of $10
Wager ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $20 bet
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial forty dollar wager
Bet $40
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original one hundred and 60 dollar bet
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your bet or the end result will not be the same.
