Proof Demo

You say Spike plays something he doesn't, just correcting you. Spike has said for years all he plays is the EC's, find where he ever said different.

OK CHEESE HEAD! Please explain this for us all. How come you know what Spike has said and has not said? How do you know that he only plays the EC's? He has never admitted to anyone what he does. How come you pretend to know what he does or does not do?

Spike and I are very close, we often wear the same clothes. What he knows, I know. And vice versa..

Actually, I'm mostly interested in writing that computer algorithm. If I fail at that I will quit playing Roulette.

Gizmo,

When MauiSunset was here, he wanted to allow up to 3 attempts at making a profit. How do you feel about having another crack at it?

With a little luck, you might even break even. 

I can't believe you gave up so easily. Or maybe I can...

I didn't give up, I quit. I was going to blow out a fast win with a progression only it blew up in my face. That made me laugh. Oh well. That worked too. I wanted to get that demo behind me because I realized that I could teach a computer to do what many students had failed to do on their own.

I was right too. My algorithm is proceeding as expected. I don't have to answer questions. I just plod along breaking it down into situational awareness conditions. It's all logical and simple actually. A live demo is what you will get anyway. It will be me, my thinking, when you run as many demos as you want. Only you control the spin entry point. You can verify the accuracy of each test. What more could you want?

Worked for me. It was exactly what I was expecting. People who use progressions have little understanding of the game. They usually get what they deserve, as you found out. A progression changes nothing, its an illusion.

Spoken like a true fundamentalist. When something has a one in one thousand chance of failing you see that as something expected. Were you able to determine that I was only going to use it maybe three or four times? Oh, that's right, you have that special gift, educated guessing. Stuck like glue. ...more fly paper.

If they think a progression will give them some kind of edge, then I have to agree.

If they think a progression will give them some kind of edge, then I have to agree. 

Let's see if you have any clues. I have spent four years talking about using two level flat betting. That's where I bet the table minimum or an attack level that fits my bankroll. So then I do a demo two weeks ago and I use a three step progression between spins 4 to 6 of 100. From just that people have dismissed four years of posting history. They have not mentioned once that I don't use progressions. Nobody found this demonstration to be fishy. In fact they see it as the full and complete truth. Gads are you guys credulous.

To answer your conclusion, I agree. A progression will not give you a long term edge if it is utilized for every spin.

[cheese]

A progression will not give you a long term edge if it is utilized for every spin.

It doesn't even give you a short term edge, how could it. All it does in magnify a flawed bet selection, as you so eloquently demonstrated in your 'demo' on how not to beat roulette. The ONLY time a progression works in your favor, is if you have a bet selection that gives you the edge. And if you have that, what the heck would you need a progression for?
