Playing for doubles

[GLC]

This is a system using a bet selection method that I've posted before.  Or at least something like it.


I use a 5 step marty followed by a 5 step grand marty etc...


For those who want to use a smaller bank, it also works well with a 2 step marty followed by a 2 step grand marty etc...


When playing the 2 step marty, stop betting after losing 3 times in a row and don't start until you've had a virtual win.

Same attachment, but added the 2 step bet for the same spins.

If things go well, I'll take the credit.

I still think my system "The very near perfect system" is my best to date.  Mr. Ore's simulations show that it's not so bad.  I know he said that he didn't think the bet selection process was that impressive, but I've been having excellent results with it.

Can you tell us what do we play if we got RRR or BBB? I would stop betting till the site change....what do you say?

It's fine to stop until a change. 


I have been continuing to bet for a change until I lose 5 times in a row.  That means we had a 7 streak.  Then I stop betting until the streak ends.  Having lost 5 times, I'm ready to move up to the next level of betting for recovery.


I have tested it by betting for RRR or BBB to become RRRR or BBBB  In other words, we are betting for a 1 to become 2 in a row so if we get a 3rd, we could say that is like a 1 because once we got 2 in a row that ended our pattern.  That would mean that we play for another R to go with our 3rd one.


If we get RR then bet for B and lose we will have RRR so now we bet for R.  Win or lose, we bet for a B next.  If we get another R that's another trigger to bet for another R.  So anytime we have an odd number of a color, we always bet for the color to hit again.

This is just a suggestion.  As with most systems, there are multiple tweaks that don't really matter one way or the other.


Hope that made some sense.

It made sense perfectly, thanks!

Too early for that.  Give it some time.  If it wins in the long run, I won't need it.  Although I may need a chauffeur.

Hi George,

Do you still use this or did it bomb in the end?  I found it two days ago and test 100% so far .

Sturrock,  This is a reasonable method to play.  There's nothing magical about the bet selection method.  It's just another method.  I feel that it tends to keep losing streaks down a little, but that's a feeling and not based on math.

I also think that a 5 step marty is too deceiving.  Losing 5 times in a row can be a rare event or it can happen in bunches and be very disheartening.  A 2 or 3 step marty will keep you in a more realistic position.  I also suggest not going to the grand marty for recovery (1-3-7).  Just stay at the normal marty.  I would also have a stop loss amount because any of these systems have sequences that drive us so deep in the hole it takes forever to recover and maybe we don't have enough bankroll to keep the progression going.

A 3 step marty (1-2-4) is a good compromise.  It's only 7 units on a loss which doesn't take a lifetime to recover.  Also, I have adopted the policy that if I get up and then have a loss or two close together, all I'm trying to do is get back to even.  So, if I'm at say +9, and I lose 2 or 3 triple losses close together and find myself in the hole, when I get back to even, I call an end to that session.

Another safer way to play is to shoot to win 10 units from the low point.  So, if we are at +4 and have a few losses and find ourselves at -5, when we get back to +5, that's our 10 unit win.  If we find ourselves at -12 and get to -2, that's our 10 unit win.  We can't win every time we walk into the casino, so every now and then we have to be willing to take a small loss. 

Whether or not you use the progression idea is up to you.  Just don't forget the stop loss to prevent disaster.

Remember, I've always said that we should only consider a small portion of any winnings as long term winnings.  Say 5% or at most 10%.  The rest will go back to the house sooner or later.

As a final word, no I don't use this system.  All even chance systems I play I use the Full TrioPlay  progression method.  It's a little more complicated, but it is a complete system with some common sense safety factors that help you keep from losing the house.

No system is bulletproof in a negative expectation game. ALWAYS have a point you won't go beyond if you find yourself too deep in the hole.
