I have gambled on millions of rounds of 21. I started working my way into the casinos when I was 16. I have enjoyed online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at 21. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get rich with this method or beat the house, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy 21. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play 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 keep wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a few years back with $750 after 35 mins using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can say good-bye to a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.
Bet five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original five dollar wager
Bet $5
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take $10 paid to you, leave the initial $10 wager
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total wager of 20 dollar
Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first 40 dollar wager
Bet 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager
Wager eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
