I'm confused I wish I were as smart as so many who post at this site, but I am not. However, my question is a curiosity. If you were playing a nickle bet and did, as you suggested, raise your bet one unit with each loss through six losses, how would you have recovered your losses? Five...

justme that was a Great ... and very proper reply Holier than tho tones abound and I deplore them. Those should just ignore !

pogostick ????? Just curious. What is 1&3? Thanks

Good Math Indeed I do apologize. You are absolutely right. I did not say what I thought I said and what I intended to say. The three tier Martingale that I have practiced does not double the bet three times. It suffers three losses and returns to the original bet. 5-10-20 then back to...

How do you make money? As you and I both know, conversations such as the one we are entering into do little, if anyting, other than promote argument and stiff-necked resistance to the subject matter discussed. However, you asked and since I've used it for many years over many thousands of...

Limited three tier Martingale In case you do not know, a Martingale is a negative betting progression which has you double your previous bet each time you lose. Ie bet $5 lose Bet$10 lose Bet 20 and so forth and so on. At any point in the progression you win then you have recovered...

Dramatic negative swings You bet! Been there and done that for sure. The negative swing right now as I count does not even trouble me except for the fact that it is so terribly, terribly negative and it went from being a basic winner to a constant loser when I began exercising counting...

Screwed up or out of whack analysis Thanks, Sonny, and I have read the sticky. I understand it well and I am not attempting to promote system play. I am a pretty new counter, but a counter non the less...not a system player. My record was presented in reply to a question, just that and...

Lonesome Gambler advice In reply to a question asking how many hours I played I have just posted a pretty detailed 13 month record. I do sincerely appreciate all the advice you have shared and please be assured that I will undertake to implement all of it. I do realize much of what you...

Billy C1 Ask how many hours played I am only posting this record to attempt giving a solid answer to Billy C1's question. I AM NOT posting it trying to suppport system play and I am NOT attempting to recommend that anyone else try system play. It is answer to a question. Nothing more...

Lonesome Gambler advice Lonesome Gambler said: As for more indices and your betting spread: the game you're playing is decent, but a 1-8 spread isn't going to provide you with much of an advantage. I strongly, strongly recommend getting CVCX and using the simulations to develop an optimal bet...

Thanks Lonesome Gambler Well now, what a great, direct and well-put reply. Thank you so much. I do know that you are right about the other factors being even more important and I will give severe attention to perfecting those things. I don't do them badly now, but there is room to improve...

Can Red Seven Win Thanks for the replies. I have no intention of insulting anyone. My words concerning Sonny and others was intended more to draw specific attention to a very specific question or two. I posed those and while I do appreciate all the other expertize and advice and I sure do...

Thanks Southpaw from Leatherman Thanks for the info. I have some idea of what you say (and believe it) from reading over time. That is why I said I can handle the negative flux if and when I have to. I will read the info you provided and thanks again for a direct reply. I still hope to find...
