Reverse D'alenbert.

[mogul397]

So I've had this idea forever. And the easiest way to see what happens it to throw it out here.

Especially with Ignatius genius ability to program sims.

What you simply do it play the reverse D'alenbert.  +1unit on a win.  -1 unit on a loss.
The bet selection is for a repeat. My example is from page 166 of Zumma. The number
in the left columb is just the number that gave the decision. If it was a repeater, it wins.
If it's a chop it loses. Just like Brians ""Nice little earner", but looking for more action against the
single numbers.

So this list is how it works from pg 166. Just a coincidence that there's a losing streak, but it
demonstrates how it works.  Mull it over. I like the idea. There would probably be some point
of reset. Like after the first loss when positive. And begin with 1 unit. Something simple like that.

Mogul.

Maybe this will help.
Think of literally EVERY negative progression method that you can think of.

One way or another you play looking for that 1 unit profit. Then you keep going.

Let's create the expression :"taking advantage of".

OK.  Well during these negative expectation runs the house "takes advantage of" the loss
runs that we play. Taking our bets.

No matter our method of play, there are also "win runs". These win runs don't get taken advantage of
in the same mathematical way that the house does our losing runs.  THEY take advantage of increase of
bets for their winning streak. WE only play for single units during ours.

But given the fact that I am at least discussing a seed of positive play here and there is no interest
or discussion, I can see why people would not bother to divulge or discuss a method they have
that is a real winner.  Probably post it and hear crickets.

Sorry I don't have a popular name in the forum.

I assume you are playing FTL, it seems how you are playing.

Unless you get a good run of one colour or the other this is doomed I think, especially on the EC's.
