I have played millions of hands of blackjack. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have gambled on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. Given all that I have still lost a lot of cash at 21. The casinos have made it very hard to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this method or beat the house, still you will have an abundance of fun. This method is built on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I do not win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand. If I do not win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Whenever I win I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original wager 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 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 do not win I lower the bet back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very fun at times. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a few weeks ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You have to understand that you can say good-bye to a great deal 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. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a five dollar table.
Bet five dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet
Bet $5
Leave 5 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take $10 paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Wager $10
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of $20
Wager twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the initial twenty dollar wager
Wager 20 dollar
Leave $20 paid to you for a total wager of forty dollar
Bet $40
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet
Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Bet 160 dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you left at this instance you would be up three hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is iffy to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t deviate and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
