You are making assumptions that border on the mean spirited. First, this IS the voodoo section. Second, not all counters abuse people that ask questions in the correct section. A lot of people have to start somewhere. The stickies many times do not 'fulfill' the answer.pit15 said:
Well, this is 'flat' wrong. Unless your talkin about martingale to which some say is much more entertaining than 'flatining it'.rrwoods said:
I should make it clear. I personally don't like martingale. Just pointing out what I think is a very poor progression can be better than flat betting in more ways than one. Flat betting is the most boring style of all and likely less profit potential as well.rrwoods said:
Please note the word 'likely'. Nothing is guaranteed. No where, has to be somewhere. And never is an awful long time! Any more questions?rrwoods said:
I always preferred a positive progression for entertainment.gamblingghost said:
ok, ok... the gears are turning. uh... neg prog. in a pos. count, hm ok that makes sense. uh... positive pro. in a neg. count.....mmm.... gears are starting to grind.....hold on.... hmm, all I can say is that is strangely interesting. I must sleep on that. Thank you.zengrifter said:
Don't crank those gears too hard. It may be an interesting idea but it's not very practical. Using a progression as a betting strategy nearly defeats the purpose of counting. Using it for cover can be a lot more expensive than most people think. Just read the stickies.gamblingghost said:
Did I say "sparingly" above?Sonny said:
Yes I do agree.Sonny said:
Now my gears are moving smoothly again. Thanks Mr. Sonny.
Yes, there is no math-upside to raising a bet in a -count.gamblingghost said:I'm with Sonny. When the count is neg. I just can't bring myself to bet up. I doubt there is an upside to it. That type of Camo be darned!
You didn't read Mr. Sonny's linked post carefully. zggamblingghost said:I'm with Sonny. When the count is neg. I just can't bring myself to bet up. I doubt there is an upside to it. That type of Camo be darned!
Well see! Not only are there stickies, now there are linked posts!! I'm gonna have to hard copy all of those and keep em close to my heart...heart....heart...zengrifter said:
Here, this one - >>gamblingghost said:
To stay in the game? My dad once said to me, "son, don't argue with success. I'm successful so don't argue with ME!" Of course, he was much bigger than me too! I kinda look upon Sonny in that way.zengrifter said:
Yes, exactly. zggamblingghost said:
but, but.... does betting up in a neg count keep you in the game?...oh brother, I know I'm missing something, direct me to a damn sticky please!!zengrifter said:
