Again, I scanned for a few minuets the other forums on gambling.  So many are basing all of their theories and predictions on 8-9-10 and 11 step Martingale progressions.  They cite recovery and profits or at least recoup their losses. 

Seriously?  WTF?  This gibberish is ludicrous and you are seriously brain damaged if you think it can work and you will profit without a doubt.  I understand 2 and 3 and even four step Martingale approaches, but anything more than that or really relying on an 8 to 11 and even cited 12 step negative progressions, are past ludicrous!

Most all live tables are either $25.00 to $2,500/$3,000/or $5,000.  Then there are some $10.00 tables to $1,000/$1,500 and even fewer to $2,000.  Anything in most all VIPs with few exceptions are starting at $100.00 to $10,000, or $200.00 to $15,000, or $300/$500 to $20,000/$25,000.  There are a few exceptions, not too many.

$10.00 and if lose these people cite and preach and show stats and charts where they recover using 8 to 11 or 12 steps of Martingale. 

$10.00 lost

1=$20
2=$40
3=$80
4=$160
5=$320
6=$640
7=$1,280
8=$2,560
9=$5,120
10=$10,240
11=$20,480
12=$40,960

WTF?  Stupid writing IMO!  Can never happen!  Over $80,000.00 risked to recover $10.00.  Never ever will the table limits allow it anyway.  Yes there are larger table limits but the min's will be anyway between $300-$500 to get a $25,000 table limit anyway in the USA anyway.  A couple of larger casinos used to have $50,000 (off the street limits, meaning, without front money deposited in huge amounts, etc.) but those min's would be no less than $500 a hand. 

Now for a $25.00 min table. 

$25.00 lost

1= $50
2=$100
3=$200
4=$400
5=$800
6=$1,600
7=$3.200
8=$6,400
9=$12,800
10=$25,600
11=$51,200
12=$102,400

Seriously!  Over $200,000.00 to recover $25.00?  Can and will never happen.

Why do these people just waste keyboard time and downgrade or attempt humiliation at anyone posting real facts and figures and experiences at casinos?

                 Martingale is the worst mathematical joke ever happened to gambling. It looks easiest to win this way. Even with 1 million chips in hand and allowed on table, it is set to make one lose whatever could never be earned back. I have myself encountered stretches of losses over 20 in number, many times, not once.
              Problem is, if martingale is bad, other published MMs are as bad, if one can simulate. Flat bet can not bet in a game of negative expectations for long. Frustrated players find it easy to win this way, being oblivious of bad finish later.
