You are so out of touch with reality that I'm not sure what to say. aurvandil has already covered it above. Common sense, please.

SilverFox, when I asked you the above question, you gave me the answer below Seems like you conveniently sidestepped my question and now you have found the chance, you are trying to throw it back Are you finally admitting that you have been denouncing basic strategy all these years...

Why are you so evasive about the book that you can't give the title? To understand why 1000 hands is not a good gauge, you should take up a statistics course

What is the title of the book again? Please share

Thanks, but I seldom gamble. If you have never thought of how the figures are calculated, maybe you shouldn't be so quick to denounce them

Okay, I don't see a need in arguing. I guess you think that by making a few simple calculations off the top of your head, you have proven all the professors, mathematicians and casinos wrong. Just an afterthought. Can you tell me how basic strategy is derived?

You are simply making a few assumptions to suit what you already believe. Have you run the simulations? Which book have you read, if you don't mind telling There really are people who can think out of the box. But not to the extent of breaking the laws of mathematics

There are no systems that can overcome the house edge The casinos are not dumb and neither are the mathematicians. From what I have read, it seems that you haven't fully grasped the mathematics behind gambling

What is the right way?

The law of the large numbers. Please do not confuse with the law of averages. The law of averages is a fallacy, whereas the law of the large numbers is a proven mathematical theory and is an accepted fact. It is actually because of this law that casinos make money. Without which, casinos...

No offence, if it were really so easy to make a couple hundred regularly and consistently, the casino wouldn't open. If you think that you are not making money because you have no discipline or you are not cool enough, then I'd have to say you are wrong. Even the most disciplined and coolest...

No offence, but for every time that it works for you, how many more times does it not work?

Quite clearly, the game is made in such a way that Singapore Pools will have a big mathematical advantage. It is the same for every lottery around the world. This is a fact. They don't need to manipulate the balls or the results. That is just your imagination

I do not know how your friend plays so I cannot comment on that. It's true that betting systems can give players a higher winning chance in the short term, but will still lose overall to the casino in the long-run. It's not that I want to purposely burst your bubble, but there are several...

This is only in assumption that the casino has no betting limits and that you have an infinite bankroll. But then, the wizard of odds seem to think otherwise.... =========== I disagree with your answer about using the Martingale with an infinite bankroll (May 22, 2004 column). If I had an...

This is simply not true. No matter how you change your stakes or betting style or way, the casino still has the advantage. That is how the casino makes money. The human weakness here is gamblers thinking that they can get the advantage or somehow win

Yes, this is exactly why it doesn't work. Have you heard of any professional gamblers using some kind of betting system and being able to make a living of it?

Does this really work? So if everybody plays like this and win money, the casino becomes a charity? Really that good ar....

Do you guys really believe you can win money by following some trend, progression or money management rules?
