I have enjoyed countless of hands of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent an abundance of funds at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it almost impossible to beat the house.
I still like the game and bet on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get rich with this method or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is founded on the fact that chemin de fer seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I do not win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial 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 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 betting 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 never back out. It gets extremely fun at times. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome runs a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Luxor a couple of years ago with $750 after 60 minutes using this technique! And a number of days ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!
You must understand that you can relinquish a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be amazed at the streaks you notice wagering this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a five dollar game.
Wager five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the initial $5 wager
Bet 5 dollar
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of 10 dollar
Bet 10 dollar
Take $10 paid to you, leave the first ten dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave 10 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $20
Bet twenty dollar
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet
Wager $20
Leave twenty dollar paid to you for a total wager of $40
Wager 40 dollar
Take 40 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 40 dollar wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take eighty dollar paid to you, leave the first 80 dollar wager
Wager 80 dollar
Leave 80 dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of $160
Wager 160 dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the first $160 wager
If you left at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it occasionally happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the end result will not be the same.
