I have wagered on millions of rounds of chemin de fer. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have enjoyed online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent all kinds of bankroll at chemin de fer. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still like the game and gamble on a frequent basis. Over the years I have enjoyed a variation of chemin de fer called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get flush with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is founded on the idea that chemin de fer seems to be a match of runs. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you are NOT!

I play basic strategy vingt-et-un. When I don’t win I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I wager the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. Once I win I take the winnings paid to me and I wager the initial bet 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 continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I return the wager back down to the original value.

I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting on occasion. If you win a few hands in sequence your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had great streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Flamingo a number of years ago with $750 after 20 mins using this method! And a couple of months ago in Sin City 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 streaks you notice playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.

Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the first 5 dollar bet

Wager 5 dollar
Leave $5 paid-out to you for a total bet of $10

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

Bet $10
Leave 10 dollar paid to you for a total bet of $20

Bet twenty dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $20 wager

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

Wager $40
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the initial $40 wager

Wager 40 dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of $80

Bet eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial eighty dollar wager

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

Bet 160 dollar
Take 160 dollar paid-out to you, leave the original 160 dollar bet

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

It’s hard to go on a streak this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and drop your wager or the final result will not be the same.
