since its essentially a 50/50 game, if you flat bet every hand what makes this idea any better or worse than any other way to play it?

Bump

You were quick to throw a stone

So I'd like an answer

Buddy,
  Flat betting will never work whichever way you choose to do that in a game of negative expectations. You will end up losing for sure.

Seriously I pondered about this in B&M play. 

From years of heavy experience.

Flat betting, no matter the amount, will get you up a few units or a loss of a lot of units just about every single time if employed for any length of time.

Hi RG!

Surely you won't get worse results than betting randomly or betting an "invincible" system!

Moreover, when you flat betting you are perfectly sure you'll lose just 1.06% or 1.24% or a mix of two depending on which side you'd prefer to wager.
We know that 99.9999% of bac players itlr will lose a lot more of that percentage dictated by mathematics. (Casinos statistics register an average players loss of about 15% of the money wagered, but ties and side bets count here)

So after $100.000 money wagered into resolved BP decisions (ties don't count) you are certain to lose from $1060 to $1240. Not more, not less.


as.

Stats are for the long term, much more than a few shoes, no matter everyday or not.

You are playing extremely short term.  Pull stats and see if you can find each shoe.  Look at a section of those shoes and see what happened if you were sitting down playing them and flat betting.

A good way in my opinion and my opinion only, is to go under the aspect that roughly 50% of what you play will just about equal out at the end of the shoe within 1 to 5 hands either way.  22.5% of what you play will be pro Player wins in excess of 7-10 hands approx. and the other 22.5% of what you play will be pro Banker wins in excess of 7-10 hands approx. The other 5% will have in excess of 10 wins either B or P.  IMO.
