If you love the blast and excitement of a good card game and the anticipation of winning and acquiring some cash with the odds in your favour, playing chemin de fer is for you.

So, how can you defeat the croupier?

Basically when gambling on chemin de fer you are watching the odds and probabilities of the cards in relation to:

1. The cards in your hand

2. What cards might be dealt from the shoe

When enjoying twenty-one there is mathematically a best way to play each hand and this is called basic strategy. If you add card counting that helps you compute the odds of cards coming out of the deck, then you will be able to increase your action amount when the odds are in your favor and decrease them when the edge is not.

You’re only going to succeed at under half the hands you bet on, so it is important that you adjust wager size when the risks are in your favour.

To do this when wagering on twenty-one you should use basic strategy and card counting to win.

Basic strategy and counting cards

Since professionals and scientists have been studying chemin de fer all sorts of complex schemes have arisen, including but not limited to "card counting" but even though the theory is complex counting cards is actually straightforward when you play chemin de fer.

If when wagering on chemin de fer you card count effectively (even if the game uses multiple decks), you can alter the odds to your favor.

Vingt-et-un Basic Strategy

Chemin de fer basic strategy is centered around a simple system of how you wager depending upon the hand you receive and is statistically the strongest hand to use without card counting. It tells you when gambling on 21 when you should hit or hold.

It’s extremely simple to do and is before long memorized and until then you can find free guides on the internet

Using it when you wager on 21 will bring down the casino’s edge to near to zero.

Counting cards tilting the edge in your favour

Card counting works and gamblers use a card counting approach gain an advantage over the gambling den.

The reasoning behind this is easy.

Low cards favour the house in twenty-one and high cards favor the player.

Low cards favour the casino because they help them acquire winning totals on his hands when she is stiff (has a 12, thirteen, 14, 15, or 16 total on her initial two cards).

In casino 21, you can hold on your stiffs if you choose to, but the croupier cannot.

The dealer has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of gambling on twenty-one require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how rich the deck is in high cards that will break them.

The high cards favor the gambler because they may break the casino when he hits his stiffs and also Aces and Tens means blackjack for the gambler.

Though blackjacks are, evenly allocated between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when he receives a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.

You don’t have to add up the numbers of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an edge over the croupier.

You just need to know at what point the shoe is loaded or depleted in high cards and you can elevate your wager when the edge is in your favor.

This is a basic account of why card-counting schemes work, but gives you an understanding into why the logic works.

When betting on twenty-one over the longer term card counting will aid in altering the edge in your favour by approximately 2%.
