I have enjoyed countless of rounds of chemin de fer. I began working my way into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have wagered on online blackjack, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still lost all kinds of cash at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to defeat the game.
I still like the game and wager on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have bet on a variation of 21 called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This method is built on the idea that 21 appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy 21. When I lose I bet the table minimum on the next hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win 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 wager on the table. If I succeed 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 wager. I continue wagering this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely enjoyable on occasion. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had fantastic runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the MGM a number of years back with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a couple of weeks ago in Vegas I left a game with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be surprised at the runs you notice betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a $5 table.

Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $5 bet

Bet eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the original $160 bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is difficult to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can NOT alter and lower your bet or the final result will not be the same.
