The only problem is any catch up method where the true odds are against you each time MUST LOSE LONG TERM. You might have a lot of fun with it and be in front for a long time. Or you might be wiped out/reach the table limit without a win the first or second time you use it.

Puntz, it is highly probable that you will never be a long term winner. There is a minute chance that you end up in front, due to variance, but it is highly improbable.

The more you play, the more likely you are to realise the expectation of the game (which is negative).

No betting systems or progressions can beat any casino game, apart from card counting.

I'm sorry, but the only way to beat roulette is either with a prediction computer (it is possible to do this using your own senses/brain, but extremely difficult), or by exploiting faulty equipment.

If you're currently ahead, quit now, and move into a form of gambling where you can find an advantage and exploit it.

Mr J, thanks.
May I add, this method is for fun, no I do not gamble, I hardly use the word, but more to the point I see each cent spent on my chosen "speculative" activities as pot luck.
In racing however, it's a different ball game, there are so many variables, I guess the strategy I use in horse racing, to apply on a roulette wheel, cannot work. but we have the ability to tinker up other strategies, and the casino is not a serious gamble as far as I a concerned. I like the food better!

It's good that it's for fun, as you shouldn't expect to profit.

I don't know much about the horses, but I'd assume that you beat it like you beat other sports, and that's by being sharper, analyzing everything in greater detail, to have more info etc.

Are you using a progression for horses?

I have used a similar system in the past and it's is a whole lot of fun. But that's all.

I used to play the dozen groups. Bet on middle and the higher one. When I was "confident" (drunk) I used to also bet on the rows at the same time. Great when it pays off and as you said, you get a free feed, free drink and a free ride home.

Keep going, it's just for fun, not a long term "job".

Boodu that's alright. I have no problem with people using progressions, just as long as they don't expect to profit off it.

All I can say is, since first starting this topic, and trying out the system, not knowing the "cosmetic changes" at the adelaide casino, I do mnot even wish to think about playing there, but the food is great! There are too many machines and the environment to "gamble" is not right. Too much lighting, too much silvery colors. Wrong colors to concentrate. Seems they use every trick in the book to throw the punters off balance.
