I have gambled on countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was sixteen. I have bet on online 21, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still lost a lot of funds at blackjack. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the casino.

I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over the years I have gambled on a type of vingt-et-un called "The Take it Leave it Method". You most certainly will not get loaded with this method or defeat the casino, however you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the fact that vingt-et-un appears to be a game of streaks. When you’re on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I wager 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 bet the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet 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 winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the bet back down to the original sum.

I am very strict and never "chicken out". It gets very exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your wagers go up very quick. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a few times now. I left a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years ago with $750 after 30 mins using this method! And a number of days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!

You must understand that you can lose much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be amazed at the streaks you see gamble this way. Here is a chart of what you would bet if you continue winning at a 5 dollar game.

Bet five dollar
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the original five dollar wager

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

Wager 10 dollar
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $10 bet

Wager ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total wager of 20 dollar

Wager twenty dollar
Take $20 paid-out to you, leave the original twenty dollar bet

Wager twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total bet of forty dollar

Bet forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager

Bet forty dollar
Leave $40 paid to you for a total bet of $80

Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the original eighty dollar wager

Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total wager of one hundred and sixty dollar

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first one hundred and sixty dollar wager

If you left at this moment you would be up three hundred and fifteen dollars !!

It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t deviate and drop your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
