I have enjoyed countless of hands of blackjack. I started working my way into the casinos when I was still underage. I have gambled on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short while. With all that said I have still lost an abundance of funds at blackjack. The gambling dens have made it basically impossible to defeat the house.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get flush with this method or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is built on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once 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 bet on the table. If I win 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 wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets very thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years ago with $750 after 45 mins using this tactic! And a number of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Bet 5 dollar
Take $5 paid to you, leave the initial five dollar bet
Wager $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet
Bet $10
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar
Bet 20 dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first 20 dollar wager
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Bet forty dollar
Take $40 paid to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Wager $80
Leave 80 dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the first one hundred and sixty dollar wager
If you left at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It is iffy to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you must NOT alter and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
