I have bet on millions of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have played online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of funds at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have enjoyed a type of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial 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 succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original wager. I keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you know it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the MGM a couple of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this method! And a couple of months ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You need to understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

Take $5 paid to you, leave the first 5 dollar wager

Bet $160

If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s difficult to go on a run this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
