Reality check

[vix]

Ok, so the last ten days or so I have played and I was suscesfull, for the first time! 
I feel myself getting all hyped up and getting ahead of myself, so i think i need a reality check... or something.

I played "Victor's 5 lines method" and used "Mattjono's smart way" to recover from a loss.
All of this was FLAT betting. I did about 20 sessions and only once did I not hit my target of 5 units. I took the one loss of -4 units,
because I was tired of playing (so 96 units won in 20 sessions).

I just keep wondering, is it gonna last? What can I expect ? I know there will be sessions from hell, but can it be overcome if use proper money management?

What I was using now was:
5% Goal
1% Unit size
25% Stop loss
(percent of BR)

Maybe some of you can tell me if there is a big disappointment waiting ahead of me, or if I am finally on the right track? I hope the last 

Any help is much appreciated.

Do the math, it never lies. Never...

A cryptic response!

"Do the math" wouldn't mean much to some of the forum, especially newcomers to roulette.

For them, could you elucidate, please?

If you're ever going to beat any casino gambling game, you must know the math that rules it inside and out. All pro BJ players know the math of card counting in detail, every pro poker player knows the math of whats going on in the game for every hand that comes up. You must know how the math in roulette works if you're ever going to get anywhere. So yeah, do the math and it will tell you if your system has a chance. Don't know how? Learn...

Don't think anyone has said so much that has helped so little in so many words...
Engineer by any chance?

As for flatbetting on streets. Have you reduced the house edge and turned it in your favour? If you have, grats, you'll win. If you haven't, sorry, you'll lose. And the answer is no, you haven't.
(Pretty simple to know if you have or haven't in this case, though.)

Typical attitude. I would come to your house and show you how to do it, but you should have learned the math by 6th grade. Damn public schools..

what they are saying is that roulette can not be beaten. if you keep playing you will lose. this applies to all players. i speak from experience.

You gapped a lot and your advice was: Learn.
That wasn't very helpful to the one who started this topic...
The math for calculating this isn't tricky, though.
Jeez...

Do the math... 0x0=0... spike is never helpful, period.

Vix I think it sounds good.
Use more of Victors and Lankys methods.

If you want to know if you are on to some-thing good.
Then place 1000 bets and gain at least 100 flat betting.

Cheers

Hi vix,

Im glad to hear you recoverd from the losses with 'the smart way'  

'''What I was using now was:
5% Goal
1% Unit size
25% Stop loss
(percent of BR)'''

so if you stick to these rules above you could afford to lose 1 in 6 sessions and still be in profit (but we dont want that we want 19 out of 20 sessions won)

Regards,
MATTJONO

Spike, you're giving me the impression that you are consistantly winning at roulette. Do you use math to win? I have read many times on this forum that it is impossible to win this game with math, do you disagree? Because of what I've read I haven't focussed on the math part...

As for flatbetting on streets. Have you reduced the house edge and turned it in your favour? If you have, grats, you'll win. If you haven't, sorry, you'll lose. And the answer is no, you haven't.

Gotrek, how do you know that I haven't? And why is it simple?

what they are saying is that roulette can not be beaten. if you keep playing you will lose. this applies to all players. I speak from experience.

Pins, why do you think your experience resembles everyones elses?

@ "I have cookies" ... Thanx, good to hear from you  

so if you stick to these rules above you could afford to lose 1 in 6 sessions and still be in profit (but we dont want that we want 19 out of 20 sessions won)

Mattjono, meaning what? That it's good?

Thanx for your time guys

yes vix, ''a good thing'' i would suggest carrying on the way you was playing if you made 96 units in 20 sessions with only 1 losing session. but if you do lose 4 sessions in a row next then you would be in a loss to your bankroll.

im no expert on all this i have to admit but i presume its down to how well you system    stratagie performs.

cheers,

I might have done the math wrong but the way I calculated it after 4 losing sessions (of 25 units) i would still be in profit with 45 units.
This was due to the 1% unit, i think 

I'll carry on and see what happens.

Vix I told you that if you stay with what Victor and Lanky does you will be ok.
Just want to mention that if you have 1K = 1000 Eur as bankroll you should play minimum like 1 Eur.

In my contry 10 Eur is minimum for even money bets but if you play high/low using line bets you can play with 2 Eur - that is the minimum for straigt up - then 3 chips on the lines become 6 Eur and high/low is the same as O/E or R/B.

Cheers
