I have gambled on countless of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began working my way into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with 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 defeat the house.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a regular basis. Over the years I have played a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the house, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This method is founded on the idea that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. Whenever I win 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 bet 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 wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the wager back down to the original amount.

I am very strict and do not back out. It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a number of years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this method! And a couple of weeks ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!

You have to comprehend that you can give away much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar table.

Wager 5 dollar
Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 5 dollar bet

Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of ten dollar

Bet $10
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the original 10 dollar bet

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

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

Wager $20
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $40

Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original forty dollar wager

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

Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager

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

Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $160 wager

If you left at this point you would be up 3 hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It’s difficult to go on a streak this long, but it will happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your bet or the final result won’t be the same.
