Thats the thing, these systems are not meant to be played in the long run,
Actually the Martingale system is flawed because it is exactly that. It requires you to be able to double-up indefinitely, which of course in practice can't be done.
It very much relies upon a 'long run' approach.
The longer you can afford to 'double-up' the lower your chance of walking away with a loss. However, if you do end up with a loss, then that loss is going to be a big one.
Martingale just reduces the chances of having small losses, but is offset by the chance of having one very big loss.
ok
i know mathematically if you play over a certain amount of spin your chances of loss go rediculously high.
With blackjack the simple truth is that on each spin your chances of losing are always fractionally greater than your chance of winning. And there is nothing you can do to change this.
The Martingale System will just increase your chances of having a lot of small 'wins' over a period of time. But these will instantly be lost when you have your first 'loss' (ie when you have such a run of bad luck that you can't afford to double-up any more).
They are quick and brutel tactics, walk in play them, when your up use what you've learned from practice and know when to leave. This is part of any pro gamblers system, and combined with rules to minimise loss, you can walk away from roulette tables, with profit.
There is no 'pro' way to play Roulette. It is purely a game of luck and nothing can be done to change that.
There are systems that can improve chances of 'winning small amounts regularly' - but they are always offset by the chance that when you do lose (and it
will happen eventually), you will lose a lot of money.
Its a simple as this in a way. If i were standing infront of you and i said, ok i bet you using this coin, that i will not get 7 heads in a row, would you bet i would. Yeah if your talking statistically fine its going to happen, but would you take that bet now. No.
I'm not sure you understand statistics and the concept behind the different 'systems' used in games of chance, like Roulette.
