I have played millions of rounds of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was 16. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of cash at vingt-et-un. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the game.
I still like the game and play on a regular basis. Over this time period I have bet on a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is centered on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a match of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Whenever I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original 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 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 bet. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting at times. If you succeed at a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Palms a couple of years back with $750 after 20 minutes using this method! And a couple of days ago in Vegas I left a game 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 enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the streaks you witness wagering this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar game.
Wager 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 bet
Wager five dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Bet $10
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Wager 10 dollar

Wager 20 dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar bet
Bet $20
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total bet of 40 dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 bet
Bet $40
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Wager eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Bet 80 dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original one hundred and 60 dollar bet
If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
