I have bet on countless of rounds of chemin de fer. I began sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have enjoyed online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still spent a lot of bankroll at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the game.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this tactic or beat the casino, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This method is founded on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a game of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I bet with basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand again etc. As soon as I win 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 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 four times my original bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I lower the bet back down to the original amount.
I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very enjoyable at times. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are betting $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 60 mins using this method! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can relinquish much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the streaks you notice betting this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar table.

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

Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $10

Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of $160
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first 160 dollar bet
If you left at this instance you would be up 315 dollar !!
It’s iffy to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result will not be the same.
