If you like the thrill and adventure of a great card game and the anticipation of winning and making some cash with the odds in your favor, playing chemin de fer is for you.
So, how do you defeat the dealer?
Basically when gambling on chemin de fer you are studying the odds and chances of the cards in regard to:
1. What your hand is
2. What cards could be dealt from the shoe
When gambling on twenty-one there is statistically a best way to play every hand and this is known as basic strategy. If you add card counting that helps you calculate the chances of cards being dealt from the deck, then you are able to increase your wager size when the odds are in your favor and lower them when the edge is not.
You’re only going to win under half the hands you gamble on, so it is important that you adjust bet size when the risks are in your favor.
To do this when wagering on vingt-et-un you have to use basic strategy and card counting to succeed.
Basic strategy and card counting

Chemin de fer Basic Strategy
Chemin de fer basic strategy is assembled around an unsophisticated plan of how you bet based upon the cards you are dealt and is statistically the strongest hand to play while not card counting. It informs you when betting on vingt-et-un when you need to hit or stand.
It is extremely easy to do and is before long memorized and up until then you can get free guides on the net
Using it when you gamble on 21 will bring down the casino’s odds advantage to near to zero.
Counting cards shifting the odds in your favor
Card counting works and players use a card counting system gain an edge over the casino.
The reasoning behind this is simple.
Low cards favor the casino in vingt-et-un and high cards favor the player.
Low cards favour the casino because they help her acquire winning totals on his hands when he is stiff (has a twelve, thirteen, 14, 15, or 16 total on her first two cards).
In casino chemin de fer, you can stand on your stiffs if you want to, but the house cannot.
The house has no choice to make, but you do and this is your advantage. The rules of wagering on blackjack require that croupiers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the deck is in high cards that will bust them.
The high cards favor the gambler because they may bust the house when he hits their stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.
Despite the fact blackjacks are, equally allocated between the croupier and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when she receives a blackjack so the gambler has an advantage.
You don’t have to compute the data of each of the individual card to know when you have an edge over the casino.
You just need to know at what point the deck is rich or reduced in high cards and you can elevate your bet when the edge is in your favour.
This is a basic explanation of how card-counting systems work, but gives you an insight into why the rationale works.
When wagering on blackjack over the longer term card counting will help in changing the odds in your favour by to around two percent.
