    Why streak lose usual very long, but streak win less more?
    Have you ever ask yourself and find the answer for it?
    Who have a stragety keep same bet at base unit when losing and increase win?

    I'm guessing English isn't their first language.
    I think they mean:
    1. Why are his losing streaks longer than his winning streaks?
    2. Has anyone asked themselves this question?
    3. Does anyone keep a lower bet during losing streaks and increase bet size when in winning streaks?

    If this is the correct interpretation, then my answers are:
    1. I don't know why your losing streaks are longer than your winning streaks, but your bet selection might need some work. That and variance.
    2. If it's variance, you play through which brings me to point 3:
    3. Yes, lower your bets during a prolonged losing streak, if in prolonged winning streak use a positive progression until first few losses.

    I feel the same way sometimes. Solving this riddle may give us a little more clue to answer the general question. The unfortunate thing is that at those times the bet size should have been reduced or stopped. however, I frequently increase the bet size, which is my weakest point. Easy to recover, but also easy to lose big, unrecoverable.

    If your current bet selection is unsuccessful and gives you longer losing streaks, then maybe the opposite of it is the answer.

    We dont need to recover at that time. Later is not too late. Mate

    I have the same experience. Betting opposite my usual bet selection ends up losing more.

    I agree. Wish we could have a constructive non-abstract informative thread every so often.

    Exactly, never chase your losses. Preserve your bankroll. I would say bet selection is 30% and Money Management is 70%.

    1 = 50%
    2 = 25%
    3 = 12.5%
    4 = 6.25%
    5 = 3%
    6 = 1.5%

    With respect though Cps10, it's a public forum. I would never have the inclination to write every last detail of what I do on here. Why should I? So guys like Dr Tom and Tabone etc.. can rip my work off. Having read forums for now 20 years, I can't honestly say anybody has divulged anything right out of the box where you can take it and go and consistently win with it. It's rewarding to come up with your own discoveries and go through all that comes with that and then you have earned it.

    I agree with you. However I feel like I have offered personally a lot of ideas that have been relevant. Most of the time this forum is a bunch seeing who can piss the furthest. With no proof. That gets old.

    If Dr Tom wants to steal my ideas (he has before) then he must need them more than me since he has to sell the information. Doesn’t bother me. I’ve been on forums for 25 years or more and most of the time there are constructive ideas. I don’t expect the Holy Grail but perhaps some things that work. Or even things that don’t work.

    Otherwise, what’s the point in a pissing contest? At least back in the day Coolpaddy, LANKY and a couple others would bounce ideas off each other even in the forums. Just made it a lot more fun.

    Every time you start a session you should know in advance how much you can lose. Set a loss amount and stick to it. Do not increase bet size when losing. Determine when to end session, play 3 separate sessions and aim to win 2 sessions out of 3.
    Determine how many sessions you are going to play and have your rules set in stone.
    For example, if aiming to win 2 out of 3 sessions:
    Win 1st session, play 2nd session. Win second session, no 3rd session, finished for the day. (W,W)
    Win 1st session, play 2nd session. Lose 2nd session, play 3rd session. Win 3rd session, finished for the day. (W,L,W)
    Lose 1st session, play second session. Win 2nd session, play 3rd session. Lose 3rd session, finished for the day. (L,W,L)
    Lose 1st session, play second session. Lose 2nd session, NO 3rd session, finished for the day. (L,L)

    In addition to the above, if you win the 1st 2 sessions (ie W,W) and want to push your luck and play a 3rd session, then either play at reduced unit size (ie 1/2 unit) or just play until very 1st loss within that 3rd session. Personally I like to be in and out as quickly as possible although it doesn't affect the variance at all.
