I have played millions of hands of blackjack. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was sixteen. I have bet on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of bankroll at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the house, nonetheless you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the idea that vingt-et-un seems to be a game of runs. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy 21. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win 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 lose I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a couple of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Atlantic City I left a table with $1200!
You need to understand that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you see playing this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager $10
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 bet
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take $40 paid-out to you, leave the first $40 wager
Wager $40
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar
Wager $160
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first one hundred and 60 dollar bet
If you departed at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
