    It's been that way here for decades but those guys still have to do Hands-On because there's lots of stuff people leave out that has to be physically put on the truck. Like furniture and mattresses and bicycles and all kinds of crap. They're rubbish men, it's always been a smelly job.

    Yeah I'm not a fan of the marty except in certain very limited coups like a tiered positive progression that uses 1-2-3 or 1-2-4 at each tier.

    See how far you can push it and where you chicken out and decide to take profit, you can take profit at any point along the way. You need three strikes to knock you out of the positive progression and just 4 units to start the progression. Balance unit size with the number of attempts you want to try in a session.

    From all that I gather, if you can prove a strategy over and over again on an rng. a casino will give you better results. When I test my strategy online with actual live spins, my hit rate is much better. A B&M casino, piece of cake. I'll give it a try some time in the near future.

    I don't know where you 'gathered' that tidbit of information because actually the polar opposite is true. You'll see, if you actually ever do it which I seriously doubt. I'm talking about actually playing not visiting a casino and making three bets and winning three times and leaving. Using a progression that small amount of play shows you nothing of what's to come.

    One thing I know for a fact is that what ever you say, the opposite is true. Now I am really getting excited to play for real money. If you say I can't win playing live, then I know for sure I can. Thanks for your lies they continually prove the opposite is true.

    Just imagine if you play in real money scenarios, kitchen table chips you shit yourself, stick to your sims. You really have nothing to offer, evidently last twenty odd pages this thread you don’t re read your embarrassing posts.

    From a theoretical point of view you have some input, but real life chips hitting the felt, you got nothing. Real life Marty play you would be a broken man in a day. All that swagger, that impervious ego self righteous would be just piss ,shit and vomit on the carpet after your first session. They would wheel you out on a gurney dripping blood from all holes.
    Your 95% claim in another post , doable, strange shit happen, but not by you. Never by you in a REAL life event.

    Your out of line hijacking the thread, your own threads are mostly dross so I understand why you target other threads. Re read what you post , take your name off the posts and pretend someone else posted it. Tragic right?

    Twoup at least plays the game for real , but he too has slipped into hijack mode. And to clarify even the waste truck driver is still referred to as a “ garbo” as are the assistants. No snobby lar de dar here in skipptophia. Cheers

    Your dreaming
    You have relied upon a flawed methodology
    You have nowhere demonstrated one iota of nothing higher than a subpar superficial understanding or feel for what you have been spouting for the last twenty pages.

    Your the learning driver that never drove before the practical driving test. Don’t forget to text as you approach oncoming traffic.

    Im on record as stated that sims /testing has its place BUT it is not the be all end all , test to get your methodology down pat , but the real test is how you handle REAL drawdown, REAL loss of bankroll, REAL loss of emotion control, REAL loss of having enough time to load your bets at the correct costing and correct field placement ( read red black bank player, high low etc ) REAL time play to correct your befuddled brain during meltdown.

    You have not demonstrated anything other than a sim you ran while you were making a slice of toast, and you fear a 6 stage Marty at the kitchen table.

    Some advice, don’t go to the casinoverse, don’t go online , stay the legend in your own mind but have the grace to tone it down here. It’s embarrassing. Cheers nothing personal just my take on your input. Cheers

    That's the ticket, sport. Make sure you keep investing your entire life savings to make sure your Martingale is for real. The Martingale has a track record for never letting anybody down that's why everybody uses it.

    You don't know that for sure. I think he should put his life savings and his grandkids college fund to the test, according to him he has nothing to lose. So what if Martingale has a trail of bodies behind it as far as the eye can see. It's different this time, he's going to bring the casino to its knees.

    And so much more. I can guarantee you that if he's crapping his pants at the kitchen table on step number six in a real casino with real money he's going to be crapping his pants at step number 4. At step number five his blood pressure will be through the roof and at step number 6 he'll be on life support. Risking all those units to win one unit should be the dictionary definition of insanity.

    I agree with the mathematical theory that in the fullness of time this is true.

    In practice it is the case that some people do extraordinarily well before getting clipped. Eventually a run of clips will take it back. Variance is a double edge sword.

    That's great if it's a long term average, but is it?

    It is always a case of do you have enough results to be statistically significant or is it within the expected variance?

    Here is the thing, if you manage to get run of positive variance it can give your bankroll a boost. And if you're growing your bankroll and unit size as you go you can end up in a situation where you are a lifetime winner, original stake plus profits in the bank and you're playing with some of the profits.

    So if you're already there then enjoy the ride as you can't lose until you do.

    ... and then the temptation to start over with a new stake puts your original banked winnings at risk. The dream of being back to where one had the good run being a winner is too much to resist for many.

    Those people are called scavengers. They drive around the good neighbourhoods on hard waste collection week, pick it over it and resell it for scrap or at garage sales and so forth. Whatever is left the council waste contractors collect, which is almost nothing once the scavengers have passed through.

    I wouldn't know about the smell you speak first hand of, I never did that kind of work.

    He has lost the progression many times, he already explained this.

    Maybe that is why you play online at the home, when you soil yourself it's a quick buzz for a nurse to clean you up.

    If you know how to read the random you don't play when the variance goes against you. Just tonight the variance was so bad I saw no bets at all, no wheel was playing any of my games. So why would I bet. Gizmo even coined a name for this, Global Effect. It's where the same thing is basically happening on every wheel you look at in a casino or in this case a bunch of online casinos that aren't even connected to each other. So I just shrug my shoulders and save my money for tomorrow. Negative variance cannot affect me because I don't bet when it's going on. If you know how to do this you are the worst enemy the casino has because you beat their game. The tide can never turn for you and the casino will never get their money back. The casinos game is patience and variance. They're very patient with you if you are a winner because they know eventually the variance is going to bite you in the ass. If it never can bite you the casino is screwed. They are just your ATM.

    At home during practice, so what. I can guarantee if he is breaking into a sweat at the kitchen table at the 6th step he will be doing that in the casino at the 4th step. After he loses the third step his brain will go into panic mode cuz after the 4th step is the fifth step and nobody wants to go there. When you're playing for real money this is just how it works. What you can tolerate at your kitchen table gets magnified and blown out of proportion when real money is laying on the table. And this has a profound psychological effect on you. It's why there are so few poker players at the very top of the chain because you have to be almost superhuman to have the balls to constantly put yourself in that position. Most people can't do it. What do we admire most about these people when we see them on TV. Not that they might win or lose just the fact that they can do it at all, calmly shove all that money out there. And not have a heart attack doing it.

    This thread is fascinating. From the very start the overall futility of it, the complexity of characters, the miriad of agendas, the who's right & who's wrong & who's neither, the tit for tat chitty chat, the obfuscation over revelation, the never ending buzz and typos of ND, the baffling interjections of the brains trust math boyz, the mind bending content of TRD, the gay avatars, the constant to and fro of goading and heckling, and though it all the unbending resolve of the OP spike.

    It might even be enough to make me give up on roulette.. thanks guys.

    It depends what your unit size is relative to your means.

    I know gamblers who get up $2 or $3 million and it's nothing to them as they are putting the value of collectible sports cars on the felt every bet. They can also lose millions in a session.

    They do it week after week and year after year.

    Typically the wealthier the individual the only thing that gets a pulse going is when they have the feeling of vulnerability that can only be obtained by getting kicked in the balls at the casino. Then they look at their watch, wait a few moments and say "got it all back again". It's just play money for them as their earning rate still exceeds what they can spend or waste gambling.
