Title: Variance
Post by: denzie on Jul 02, 09:11 AM 2016
Is variance measurable? 

Just a debate I would appreciate your thoughts on .....

Most of us got some very good methods/strategies to play with. Until that variance comes to take all our profit back.
What if we could somehow measure this variance. .......
In combination with statistics. ...

Hi Winkel,

Well that would be my answer too. There are limits to certain events. And statistics of let's say a few million spins can't be ignored.

Now how to use these is the big question

Also why all online casino's kick you out the session if we don't place bets? They don't like we are waiting for something? 

All things like that makes people think. All the info they provide is not because they care and wanna help us. It's because they know how easily the human brain can be fooled. So better to look for things they do that doesn't "help" us...

For me the only thing that works is patience. If I sit down and start playing then variance is coming for me. If it's not today of tomorrow it will be soon. But certain events always happen. And if you wait long enough to not see them happen. .....

Not wanna yak about my thread Denzies parlay .....but I've noticed if I wait certain virtual dd....I can't make it lose. The only downside is patience and seeing many betting opportunity fly by..... but still better to not lose money

In gambling:

Variance = Luck.  Good or bad.  Whenever you see this word in gambling, replace it with luck.  Furthermore, it's not possible to side step luck by using statistics.

Over time, luck isn't what's really consuming your bankrolls, it's the house edge.  This is easily proven mathematically.

Yes you can measuring both statistics and variance.
This is overrepresented events contra underrepresented events for even money bets.
At left side you have the overrepresented events and above you have the underrepresnted events.

You can do you own chart using the Z-Score and you don't need any math skills to do so, i don't follow Bayes math Formulas, so i made it easy for and attach excel sheet, build your own statistical variance chart :-)

In the random game, it's not possible to side step variance by using statistics.  Try as you might, the payout will always be short of the probability of winning within the random game.

So isn't there a possibility to measure events on ec , doz , straight numbers , singles etc to make the ultimate tracker ?

:o

I believe TG uses statistics too recruit. He uses that on straight numbers. The ones going for a second and third and fourth hit.
He's doing alright. At least he said so

Anyway just was thinking if it's possible to make such tracker. ...

Biased wheel players are testing the fitness of the gambling device, (the wheel) and the effect of physical defects.   However the system player is using it in a vein attempt to beat the random game of roulette.

Not when past spins are being used to measure the fitness of the gambling device and to measure the effect of observable defects. 

Comparing what a biased wheel player's use of data to what a system player does is not comparing apples to apples.  :wink:

Ok I would like to try again.

If we have a bet selection that's very good. But of course still loses to the HE . But let's say if we put a certain system on a graph...let it run for whatever k spins. We see the line goes up and down non stop.

Couldn't we measure the average dd ? 
If we could then couldn't we know when to bet ?

Denzie, we can always figure out an average DD. But the problem is it is an average and it is a dangerous word. Knowing the average will not help you in deciding when to bet as it is an average, you could go up or down at that point. Your definition and idea will work when we find the perfect or more/less perfect wave to work upon. But we dont get that wave using standard random selections and hence my opinion is it is not workable.
Title: Re: Variance
Post by: denzie on Aug 04, 12:57 PM 2016
That's probably the difficult part...finding that wave. Although I have few.

In Denzies parlay it is very hard to lose if we wait the dd. It's actually more annoying to see the many winning opportunities fly by.

In gut we have some crossings that also seem to go up and down. Even if we go in it still can go down but it should pull up and recover the losses and make winnings.

Things like that. ...
Title: Re: Variance
Post by: Priyanka on Aug 04, 01:10 PM 2016
Denzie - I havnt read much about your parlay, so cant comment.

But with respect to GUT, I dont want to comment on whether it loses or wins and trigger a debate.  But what I can definitely say is it doesnt make a difference if you wait for the DD or not, it gives the same results based on my simulations.

Guys,

You're wasting your time if you're trying to side step variance (large drawdowns).  Each spin of the wheel is independent.   Read up on the gambler's fallacy/Monte Carlo fallacy, basic probability, and the history of the game and you'll understand why.

Best of luck,

The General

im saying he is arrogant

and there is no reason for it

people like the hobby of roulette and exploring new approaches

he pisses on the parade....for no reason....

he comes here everyday to tell people that they are wasting their time

if everyone is "wasting their time" isn't he also wasting his time by coming here and entertaining it?

Any details or have you made any thread for discussion or explaining your approach?  The graph looks sweet for 15.000 spins

I think with some discussion/ideas based also on variance/deviation aid out can be interesting.  If you have any thread made or want to pm feel free ;)
