THIS system consists in playing that the Bank
will not beat you three ' coups ' in succession.
If it does, you lose one capital or ' sautez,' and
must recommence with a unit of 1 again.

The Progression employed is 1, 2, 4, to
commence with. If you lose your 1 + 2 + 4
= 7 pieces, you then attack with a capital of 11
pieces, and play 1, 3, 7 until you have got back
the 7 just lost, in which case you return to your
original method of 1, 2, 4.

Supposing you lose your second capital of 1 1
pieces, you would then double your unit and
play 2, 4, 8, and if this also goes down before
all losses are recovered, you would play 2, 6,
14, and if still unsuccessful 3, 6, 12, to be
followed by 3, 9, 21.

Provided you have lots of patience and plenty
of capital behind you, there are many worse
systems than this.
