Gambling Philosophy / Re: The short term and its old self

Seems to me Hit and Run fits quite neatly into that interesting analysis.

The problem with hit and run is it gets
you attention from the pit if you're any
good at it. They know you can't beat
their edge, but they don't like being
beaten in the short term either. Why
draw attention to yourself if you don't
have to.

If it gets out that a simple method like PATTERN BREAKER. Can win.

All systems can win at one time or another.
The big question is, does Pattern Breaker
beat the house edge? It most certainly does
not, therefore in the scheme of things its just
a hobby system. To win consistently you need
an edge greater than the casinos, its really
that simple. And that difficult.

4) Even Chance. (SPIKE's 72% method  :))  )

I was serious for about 75% of that post. Honestly, I have never found an E.C. method I like.

I don't doubt it. :nope:

John Legend said: "Red black indeed is the weaker of the three even chances."

The wheel and ball have no idea what
color the pockets are. All the pockets are R/B
O/E and H/L at the same time. Could you elaborate
on how R/B could be 'weaker' than the other two
even chances?

Thanks

Should we be having a poll on this?

Absolutely. Self moderated threads never work. I would
never want to tell someone I don't like what they said
and delete it. Completely kills the point of discussion.

Quote from: VLS on November 28, 2012, 05:03:19 AMwe can at most use  our frame of reference (whatever that be: system, method, belief, vodoo, etc.) in order to speculate.

Educated guessing is always under rated.

So if I started a James Wendel Memorial thread,
you'd take it down? He was a legend in his own
mind..

a straight-up number has a 36-spin cycle, a double-street has a 6-spin one and so forth for the rest of the betting locations.

But random outcomes don't follow any cycle you
can depend on.

C'mon you guys. You're missing the reason
most people lose. Its by far number one, top of the
list. You see it everytime time you play.

Complete ignorance of how the game you're playing works.
How many slot players have even the vaguest knowledge
of how a slot works? How many roulette players know what
they're up against playing roulette? How many BJ players
even know what variance is? Same with bac. People just
play and play till their money's gone, happy in their ignorance.

The casino counts on this. Well educated players is the last
thing they want.

You can't predict when a winning streak will occur. Obviously you must react quickly when you are in one.

How do you know it's a winning streak? Please
give an example to illustrate what you mean.
