There is only one progressive staking method that works. Progressive staking after a win only if your can win at level stakes [never after a loss]. A progression after a loss will magnify your wins but will also magnify your losses and anyone contemplating progression staking has too many of those. Tilt.
Google to 'Dr. Maths' or any other of the maths sites and progressive staking is all doom and gloom. Maths, unlike stats cannot be manipulated. It's a hard task master of reality and it will shove 'special pleading' or 'strawman'
arguments right up your......if your silly enough to let it.

As I said, just doing some research into progressive staking.
I am a level staking man.... always have been.... probably always will... as my punting profile does not like to "extrapolate" my turnover based on my performance on any given day in order to turn a profit...(i can take the good with the bad).... my stomach just wouldn't be able to take a bet 5/6/7/8 times my "normal" stake on any particular race.....
As I've said I'm a novice when it comes to "staking/progression" plans and appreciate the feed back from you guys........ so I can take it all in and make up my own mind on whether another staking method is appropriate.... I'm still think that a staking plan with a good strike rate (and steely resolve) could improve a punters POT....
It works for darky using the 6 point plan, I'm just fishing for anyone else who has found it works for them.......anyone?
I've tried testing a few progression plans on my past results without much deviation at all.... which leaves me (at this stage) quite comfortable with "my" approach.....
Thanks, but keep the feed back coming....
