In reply to thorp being the expert in Roulette, I don,t think so, He never came up with anything that could beat the wheel, only a few shots in the dark at the mathematics that might be able to predict it, he tried analogue computers,but to no avail. As he is one of my neighbours, I get first hand info from him on how sick he is at people using his name to verify gaming strategies other than cards. I do believe you mean Ed Thorp!:So I think that you should get a life Kelly, instead of leeching of others!
Im happy for you. But im still not chip. Chip doesn`t belive in a working mechanical system. Neither do i. Chip doesn`t belive in beating the Roulette by ballistic methods. I do. Even the experts (Basieux, Thorpe) can`t predict a specific half of the wheel every single spin, but 2 out of 3 is possible. On average the third is absolutely unpredictable. Even with such an advantage to the player, Basieux still has losing streaks of up to 7 spins in a row. And is prepared for streaks of up to 15 in extreme.
: A mechanical system can`t work because the probability is always the same. All tests shows that no matter where you start or stop your betting you will lose.
: I won`t deny that you can stay ahead for years, several tests shows that too but that is still down to luck.
: Just an opinion and you can start calling me names, i wouldn`t expect anything else in here.
