Title: $1 to $2 one time. Also fallacy?
Post by: Mr J on January 28, 2010, 02:01:22 AM
  If I bet $1 on red (say I lose) my next and only bet is now $2 on red. Did I just use fallacy? Is fallacy in BOTH the "betting red again" as well as using a one dollar progression one time. Are they BOTH fallacy or just one of them (which one?) or neither? Ken

I say betting at all, much less progressions is fallacy, because the casino has the edge at all times.  There's no guaranteed winner for the bettor.

Thats interesting, perhaps another example of fallacy? I dont agree with it but I hear what you are saying. So lets say I walk in the casino, I put $3 on red. I lose and walk out the door. Is that fallacy?  Ken

I can say that is fallacy also.  You are not guaranteed to lose, which is why I gamble.  The odds may be against the bettor, but many gamblers win some of the time.  If the casino didn't have winners people wouldn't gamble.

Any other replies? $1 to $2...one time, then leave casino. Fallacy?  Ken
