Bet 1 unit and lose; bet 2 units and lose; bet 3 units and lose; bet 7 units and lose and leave the table. If I win bets 1, 2 or 4, I win 1 unit. If I win on bet 3, I break even and if I lose all 4 bets, I have lost 4 hands in a row and 13 units and live to play another table or another day. Although I double down, split and surrender when appropriate, I do not consider the extra $$ bet (or the surrender rebate) when choosing my next bet.
Do I win doing this? Most often I do. But then I quit when my profit is 50% 0f my initial stake, too!! The hardest part, however, is to walk after losing the 7 unit bet but I have found it is not worth betting (and possibly losing) a 14 or 15 unit bet trying to pick up one unit or to break even. The majority of my profit seems to come from double downs or Black Jacks when multiple units have been bet.
Is this stupid? Maybe so, but I believe that I am a net winner doing this.
