I have played countless of hands of chemin de fer. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was 16. I have bet on online chemin de fer, I have counted cards, and worked as part of a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent an abundance of money at chemin de fer. The gambling dens have made it very hard to beat the casino.
I still like the game and bet on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You certainly won’t get flush with this method or beat the house, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This method is based on the idea that 21 seems to be a game of runs. When you’re on fire your hot, and when you’re not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the next hand. If I do not win again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial 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 win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win 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 don’t win I return the bet back down to the original sum.
I am very disciplined and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling at times. If you succeed at a few hands in a row your bets go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200per hand. I have had awesome streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a couple of years back with $750 after 35 minutes using this tactic! And a few days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can squander a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be surprised at the runs you see betting this way. Below is a chart of what you would bet if you kept winning at a five dollar game.

Take 5 dollar paid-out to you, leave the first $5 wager
Bet $5
Leave five dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of 10 dollar
Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the initial $10 bet
Bet $10

Wager $160
Take $160 paid-out to you, leave the initial $160 bet
If you departed at this moment you would be up 3 hundred and 15 dollars !!
It is difficult to go on a streak this long, but it often happen. And when it does you can NOT deviate and drop your wager or the end result won’t be the same.
