As an example....
Let's say I start with a line comprising of 1 1 1 1.
My first bet is 7 splits = 14 numbers.
I will place 2 chips on each of the 7 splits according to the rules.
A win would return me 36 chips meaning a gain of 22 chips.
My line now reads 1 1 1 1 2.
Now here is the interesting part. Suppose my average bet was only 7 splits. This will leave me with a residue of 8 chips.
The 2 on the end of my 1 1 1 1 2 line is the equivalent of 14 chips.
So I could now add an extra 1 to my line if I liked just to act as a bit of insurance and reduce the risk of a couple of losses wiping out my line quickly.
I would now have 1 1 1 1 1 2.
Let's say my line got to the following stage....
1 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 7
...and so I was betting 9 x 7 splits = 63 chips.
A win would give me a residue of 36 chips.
I could then add a couple of extra 2's to the left hand side of my line.
It does seem that there are some nice possibilities with the Reverse Labouchere.
