Need some thoughts on this

Haven't used it yet, but would appreciate some insight...Don't worry, I'm ready for any harsh criticism and laughter that may come along

Please take a look at the following link and respond back with thoughts on how gambling is easy and a NO LOSS system which even the dumbest bettor can win on.

Thoughts and comments are very much appreciated

I agree with it in theory. Obviously as long as you have the bankroll to support it you will eventually be a winner. It comes down to is it really worth the amount of money you have to put up to win $100 or whatever amount you choose.

A friend of mine tried something similiar in roulette once. He kept betting on black and red/green literally hit 9 times in a row. He didn't have the money to keep going so he took a loss. He obviously never thought black could go that long w/o hitting. If he had the bankroll he obviously would have eventually won. That was horrible luck for him, but it's conceivable that if you start out at $100 you might eventually have to bet thousands to win that $100.

This also takes some of the fun out of gambling, in my opinion. But the system you described is full proof as long as you can fund it long enough to weather a 8 or 9 game losing streak.

1) You need more than $100,000 for this "system".
2) You've gotta make sure you play @ books with high limits, because eventually you'll need to bet several dimes in order to compensate for a 6-7 game losing streak.
3) Sooner or later, you'll probably lose 10 games in a row. Might be months, might be years. But I'm sure there are some people in here who have lost 9-10 in a row.

What was the limit @ the roulette table?

wheredatreezat · Feb 3, 2004

Sure a team can lose 9 or 10 games in a row against the spread, however I'm sure the top tier teams don't have that problem, hence it is a sure thing. Of course the time I try it the friggin Blue Devils will go 0 and 10 ATS in my first 10 games of trying it. Was just a thought.

The obvious downfall is the possibility of layign huge dollars for such minimal returns but a W is a W nonetheless, right?

Taken the fun out of gambling? Yes I totally agree, but this is to try and make a few bucks.

Thanks All!

I have no idea to be honest. It was in Vegas at New York New York if I remember correctly, but I'm not sure what a standard limit is on a roulette game. I know he said he ended up losing a few grand on the deal.

I don't know the exact details but based on him losing a few grand, he probably started around $20 and lost from there. 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, 2460. That would add up to around 5 G's which is higher then he said he lost. Either way it was some bad luck for him and obviously a bad idea.

I hadn't even thought of the limit issue until you mentioned it in your last post. That is definetly something to take in account.

I agree, if you're just trying to make a few bucks and willing to put up that kind of money, as long as the limits not too low you'll eventually be a winner.

I don't have the stomach for the get even bet it would take after 5,6, or7 losses . We are talking a hypothetical unlimited bankroll here.

wheredatreezat · Feb 3, 2004

Bet to win 10 dollars then where the bankroll won't need tp be HUGE.

But you are right, we are talking a hypothetical bankroll here to win the 100.

However, start playing low, build the bankroll, then increase at your own comfort level.

Remember, I haven't used this, nor do I know what the longest donut was against the spread. Just curious what others thought.

Thanks again
