I have bet on millions of rounds of twenty-one. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have bet on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of funds at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have wagered on a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, still you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the winnings paid to me and I bet 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 win 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 wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun at times. If you win a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 35 mins using this method! And a few days ago in Atlantic City I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the first five dollar wager
Wager five dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original $10 bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Wager $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 80 dollar
Bet 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet
Wager $80
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 1 hundred and 60 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
