Guess Who’s Coming to Winner?

[Bayes]

bombus,

How are you going about this? I think it might help to tackle it in a systematic manner. Are you keeping records of what works and what doesn't? It might help to use the software which keeps track of your SD. You can find it in the reference section.

Thanks Bayes,

I have the Zmeter. That thread is definitely worth a read for everyone... he was a good member that Tangram, it's a shame he's gone.

If this continues I will eventually do as you suggest and keep accurate records, etc, but for now I'm just getting the feel for it. If I can't out perform the mechanical methods I'm modelling off, then I will admit defeat and surrender before any there's need of exhaustive record keeping.

Cheers.

You're funny, Bombus. You expect to be good enough at educated guessing in a couple weeks to know if its valid or not? You might as well stop right now like everybody else does.

True!

Same goes for Marven. Too bad he's gone.

I don't blame them. This place turned into a lame Spike/Gizmo/Ken circus (along with the occasional system sellers).

It will take more than a few weeks to knock me off. One thing I'm not is a quitter. Just take a look at the world cup tipping thread. I've been coming last all the way, but keep putting up my tips each day... Well I'm coming third last actually, but the bottom two were quitters! lol.

I've got reams of roulette records strewn about the place, so for now I'm going to continue guessing with as little record keeping as possible.

After dropping $960 I have decided to play with greater caution. I've only played two 50 spin sessions since then and have managed to get the bank back up from 1460 to 1590 - not much but better than losing. My confidence levels are not high, so I don't think I'll be pushing the progression through to step 8 for a while.

One thing I would appreciate advice on is the ZERO.

When you make a bet, and for me it is on 2 dozens, or 2 columns, you do so because the session is in a particular state of random flux and you make a guess on the next outcome. If the next outcome is ZERO you lose the bet, but because ZERO is not part of the doz/col setup the random flux has in effect not changed. Should the next bet then be a mechanically default bet on the previous bet?

Should the next bet then be a mechanically default bet on the previous bet?>>

Whatever my bet was previous to the zero, thats the bet after the zero. Its just a neutral pocket, after all.

[bombus]

Thanks, that's what I thought. I'll do that for now.

[Spike!]

In 100 spins at the casino tonight, there were 11 zeros. No kidding. I hate when that happens.

[bombus]

Ouch!

Out of interest, how did you fare on the 11 post zero bets?

I ask because my bets seem to have a pretty good hit rate when repeated after a zero...probaly just luck at this stage.

They're just pests flying around my ears, irritating vermin, stalling me from reaching my goal. Nothing more..

[bombus]

Bayes is right. I need to keep some record of SD at least. I will use the Zmeter with all sessions from here on.

I know what doesn't work – following the system selections in a mechanical fashion & betting opposite the system selections in a mechanical fashion.

--------------------------------------------------

Still not sure if zero should signal a repeat bet all the time. One thing I have noticed is, if you take the six numbers either side of the zero on a single0 wheel there are 5 numbers from the first dozen – everything else is even. That's 41% of the first dozen in 33% of the wheel. So maybe I should look at including the first dozen in the bets when the dealers are persistantly hitting around the zero?... I know you can find these odd relationships all over the wheel, but the zero is an easy reference point... just tossing it up.

So what else we got?

1) Random versus random -- Nope. Unfortunately, doesn't work long term.
2) Guessing -- Basically, same as random vs random. You should give it a try though. Spike got it straight away. He just observed the table for some time while waiting his wife and realised he can guess the EC's (more than the expected %). To me, it is kind of a supernatural skill. I'm open-minded person, I know people can have such skills. I'm not kidding. Spike advises practicing for years or decades. I don't know why. IMO, you either got it or not. No need to spend so much time if you're not blessed.

No bad feelings at all.

Good luck.

To me, it is kind of a supernatural skill.>>>

Not at all, its a learned skill. Playing the piano or violin looks supernatural to me, because I never learned how.

[mistarlupo]

You probably found a hidden talent. I cannot agree that it is a learned skill. There should've been many like you out there.
