Everyone is missing the same point. We make bets that have positive expecation.
Playing baseball favorites at -200 prices don't have positive expecation.
Game 1 is a negative expectation. Game 2 is a negative expectation. Game 3 is a negative expectation. Game 4 is a negative expecation.
Only Rob Singer could add all these up, and concude "Ratcheting our betting up, WE HAVE THE EDGE"
Last time I checked, the sum of a series of negative expectations summed to a negative expectation.
As a closing statement, let me add that anyone seriously thinking of betting into a progression like that really should strongly consider ceasing betting for awhile, and start reading/learning. The fact they would even consider such an obvious flawed strategy is a red flag that they are not processing info. properly enough to win.
Sharp players look to do things like playing correlated hockey parlays +1.5 goals and under 5.5. THESE are the sort of things you should be looking to find. Not idiotic martingale systems that (gulp) look to play on overpriced Baseball teams at -200 lines.

If you have a big bankroll and you bet the dog to win one rather than the other way around I think you will get away with using a martingale like system to increase the amounts following each loss. Just look at how some csinos handle varying your wagers. And thats not just for card games. If you do it across several outs increasing your bet amount wont be detected. Be prepared for the one time you loss a bunch in a row over severall series because that is when you lose all your previous games. Statistically they say it will catch up to you in the long run.
