I have played millions of hands of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was still underage. 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 spent a lot of money at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to beat the house.

I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have wagered on a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or beat the casino, nonetheless you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is built on the idea that vingt-et-un appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I bet with basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win 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 bet the initial 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 win 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 bet. I keep betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the action back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never back out. It gets very thrilling at times. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had great runs a number of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Venetian a couple of years back with $750 after 30 minutes using this tactic! And a few months ago in Sin City I left a table with $1200!

You need to understand that you can relinquish a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be aghast at the streaks you notice gamble this way. Below is a guide of what you would bet if you continue winning at a $5 game.
