I have gambled on countless of rounds of twenty-one. I started working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have wagered on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still lost all kinds of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the house.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a type of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get flush with this method or defeat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that 21 appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I bet with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Whenever I hit I take the payout 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 succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep 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 back out. It gets very exciting on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a number of years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!

You must comprehend that you can lose a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a $5 table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet

Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total bet of $10

Wager ten dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 10 dollar bet

Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total wager of twenty dollar

Bet twenty dollar
Take $20 paid to you, leave the initial $20 bet

Bet $20
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of $40

Wager 40 dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet

Bet 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar

Wager eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar bet

Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160

Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the original one hundred and sixty dollar wager

If you departed at this point you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
