Your math is off,or you are not betting properly.
W-up 10
L-even
L-down 10
W- even
L- down 10
L-down 20
L-down 30
W- down 20
W- even( you raised your bet to 20)
Now you lose 6 $10 bets in a row and are down $60
W- down 50
L- down 70( betting 20)
W- down 50
L- down 80( betting 30)
W- down 50
L-down 90( betting 40)
W-down 50
L- down 110( betting 60)

Heres where OG is a thing of beauty. If you were flat betting,you'd be down less, but you would need 8 wins in a row to break even. Using OG,two wins and you are ahead.
W- down 50( now you don't raise your bet because a $60 bet is all you need.)
W- up $10.
Flatbetting,you'd still need 6 more wins in a row to be even. Don't forget that in this sequence,we had a number of green chip bets out, earning us extra comps as well.
Still think its silly?

I have been playing Oscar's Grind for years and I think there is a mistake above in the betting sequence.
1 unit = $10.

W-up 10 .......................... 1 unit won
L- down 10
L- down 20
W- down 10
L- down 30 (betting 20)
L- down 50
L- down 70
W- down 50
W- down 20 (betting 30)

Now you lose 6 in a row

L- down 50 (betting 30) 20+10 for 1 unit win
L- down 80
L- down 110
L- down 140
L- down 170
L- down 200

W- down 170
L- down 210 (betting 40)
W- down 170
L- down 220 (betting 50)
W- down 170
L- down 230 (betting 60)
W- down 170
L- down 110 (betting 70)
W- down 50
W- up 10 (betting 60) 50 + 10 for 1 unit win
Total of 2 units won.

I have kept track of 110K hands using this Grind and entered the results in a spreadshheet. Over the course of the 110K hands all of the series or sequences won (almost 15,000). 100% of the time.

The bad news is that a bankroll of up to 8,800 units was needed to complete every sequence.

Over 110K hands 21,000 units were won (about 1 unit for every 5 hands played.)

All hands were played using BS. The game was 6D DOA DAS LS

No indices were used and the count was ignored. All hands played thru positive and negative shoes.

Hope this info helps someone!
