So I'm trying to read that chart. Is it saying that if I play out 100 hands, then the chances of me being up 1 unit is like 92%? According to the odds even money is at about 91.77777% of the time.

With my system I assume getting blackjack or double down wins or losses are bonuses. If I double down and lose I just increase my bet as if I lost one unit instead of two. Then if I double down and win I start over and pocket the extra units. In the long run i just assume the double down and...

I understand how some really close minded people have probably walked in here and pissed you off in some way, but at what point out of anything I have written did you get the idea that I wasn't very open to the possibility that I just happened to get really lucky? I'm a math guy. I...

So I am new to all of this and have never read a thing about card counting or this Martingale guy, but I came up with a betting strategy that i thought would be fun if nothing else which has really worked well. I'm not a big gambler so I wasn't betting a ton of money, but both weeks I was in St...
