yes
I meant martingale, I was at work ordering parts and typing at the same time, lol. I'm aware of the disasters of chase systems when used in BJ, with 52-54% odds at most, using perfect play, and bet spreading. It's a losing system. But this is where you guys that have experience with the whole wager thing can tell me I'm wrong. I am thinking that if someones picks are at a 65-75% winner rate, you can't fall that far behind before you hit another winner. As in BJ, you can go 6-10 hands losing and pushing, and without deeeep pockets, your toast. If someone loses 6-10 wagers in a row, well I think you should'nt be using his picks frankly.
I tracked this guys plays for 12 games, in 8 rounds, and he's never had more than 2 losses in a row. $100.00 bets, he's up $800.00. He's hitting more like 66%, that part I realized after going over all of his plays, not as thrilled as I was before.
I have seen him use O/U's, .5 point spreads, and regulation time only, on a couple of his plays. I have just used O/U's, moneylines, and final totals, and actually picked up 2 extra wins, where he showed a loss, lol.
I'm sure there are horror storys out there using chase systems. But if your ROR/BR and betting proportions are in realistic means, you should be able to go 5 or 6 deep without an issue. So in reality, you just lose profits for those 5 or 6 POD's, and end up with profit for 1 pick. I'm open for faults in this type of system for wagering.
