Tomla, I am always curious about successful sports bettors.  How do you select the team to bet on?  Is it a mathematical process or do you follow sports closely enough to be able to intuitively pick?

I think he's asking about the stop-loss that you added to play after the initial larger tests by Nickmsi failed to show a profit with flat betting only.

The charts with -1 and/or -2 stop loss (then restart a new game), were the only ones that showed a profit without a progression.

So still flat betting with an added -2 stop loss then restart new game. Is that correct?

Yes, this is what I was asking.  Evidently not.

Adulay please check your PM.

I realize that many are stuck on running millions of trial hands but it's hard to beat sitting down at the table once your comfortable with your bet selection.

Hit the B&M casino tonight and flat bet my way to a very nice +8 net.

Can't complain about that.

This makes three trips to the casino where the VDW play has produced a profit.

Simple yet effective for general baccarat play.

An upload of the shoe should be available tomorrow after some sleep for those who care to take a look.

Quick question if you don't mind.  Were you playing as you originally indicated with a reset after a win or did you go with -2 stop loss before resetting?

I always thought the perfect gambling solution was to put bills into a coin changer.  Just like a slot and it always pays 100%.

Thanks for the comments friends. But unfortunately results don't seem to agree

I have some acquaintances (not really friends but people I've met) that actually play US horses for a living and they tell me the win rate is similar to poker.  In poker you play maybe 18% - 20% of the hands dealt but you expect to win better than 50% of the hands you play.  So you're winning like 9% of all hands dealt.  In horse racing you may play 50% to 75% of the races but your win rate is maybe 15% so you're winning like 7.5% to 11.25% of all races watched or handicapped.  And at 7% to 12% win rate, your win rate can still be statistically significant but you can still be losing money.  Horse racing is tough.
