I've been getting good results with a new system I developed. It's a variation of the D'Alembert System. The change I made was simply this, I subtract 2 units after the 2nd win in a winning streak. So, if you won 6 in a row you'd and you started at 10 units you'd bet like this 10-9-7-6-5-4. Subtracting 2 units after the 2nd win. The rest of the time it's just a D'Alembert add 1 unit after a loss and subtract 1 unit after a win, except after the 2nd win in a win streak where you subtract 2 units. Let me know what you think. I don't have a Blackjack simulator so I haven't put it through alot of simulations, but I have been getting good results playing.
New System D'Alembert Variation

The biggest difference with this system is that it keeps the betting down, by subtracting the 2 units after 2 wins in a streak, you're taking about 10 "scalps" per 100 hands. So, the betting can't really get out of control on you. The only concern I have is how much are the "scalps" going to cost me in the long run. I like playing it with Blackjack, because I think the Double downs and Splits will make up for the "scalps" I'm taking off.
Well by "scalps" I mean the instances where you subtract 2 units. The D'alembert, of course, would work if you could get the betting all the way back down to 1 unit. The problem with the D'alembert is that the HA causes the betting to get out of control and you at some point will not be able to return to the 1 unit bet you started with. By subtracting 2 units after 2 wins in a streak, you're able to get the progression back down to 1 unit every time. The problem is the "scalps" will cost you money off of the D'alembert, but the DD's and Blackjacks should, I would think, make up for those "scalps".
Well, I think the D'alembert Variation I've developed would by itself keep the game about even. As I said before, the D'alembert would win if you could get it back to the original 1 unit bet. The HA makes it at some point impossible to return to the original 1 unit bet, but the D'Alembert is a profitable system if it returns to the original 1 unit bet. As opposed to the Martingale which with a straight 50/50 game would only break even. So, these "scalps" are just cutting into the profits of the D'Alembert System.
So, the system is keeping the game about even by itself. That's just the system betting, but by adding "bonuses" of double downs and Blackjacks, that should be enough to make the game win.

In older days, I used to play the D'Alembert, and, in desperate measures, trying to fight my way back to unit 1, I resorted to the following:
win -1
win double -2
win triple -3 (etc)
win bj -2
push -1
lose anything (single, doubles, triples...) +1
In the end, lost my winnings.
Back to the drawing board !

With 99.99% certainty - your "Good" results will evaporate over time.
In the "end" you will lose back more than you have won. That you can bet on !
It is your type of illogical thinking that makes the casinos so very rich.
You are just another one, among (LITERALLY) millions, who imagined that they had found the "golden goose"
