I have gambled on countless of hands of 21. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have played online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of money at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it almost impossible to beat the game.

I still enjoy the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have played a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this tactic or beat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a match of streaks. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!

I gamble with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I do not win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit 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 bet on the table. If I succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the bet back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling on occasion. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are betting $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Palms a few years back with $750 after 20 mins using this tactic! And a number of weeks ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can lose a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see wagering this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.

Bet $5
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $5 bet

Bet 5 dollar
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

Bet 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar bet

Bet ten dollar
Leave $10 paid-out to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 bet

Wager 20 dollar
Leave twenty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of forty dollar

Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first $40 bet

Wager forty dollar
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

Wager eighty dollar
Take eighty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar bet

Bet eighty dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 160 dollar

Wager $160
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid to you, leave the first one hundred and sixty dollar bet

If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!

It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you must NOT deviate and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
