I have bet on millions of rounds of vingt-et-un. I began sneaking into the gambling dens when I was still underage. I have played 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 money at chemin de fer. The casinos have made it nearly impossible to defeat the house.
I still enjoy the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get rich with this method or beat the house, however you will experience an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that blackjack seems to be a game of runs. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you’re not you are NOT!
I wager with basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I lose again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I hit I take the payout paid to me and I wager the original bet 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 succeed 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 wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original bet.
I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quick. Before you realize it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a few years back with $750 after 30 mins using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Las Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You must comprehend that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the runs you witness playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

Leave $5 paid to you for a total wager of ten dollar

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