Thank you for the generous replies chaps.

After taking in some of your thoughts I reckon a bet size of 1% of max bank level with a strike rate of 30 odd % seems conservative enough to weather the worst of bad runs yet positive enough to enable worthwhile growth. A bank such as this would have reached $14719 today after starting with $1000 39 days ago.

Given what you guys have said I am minded to test a little further before betting real money - maybe after 2500-3000 bets.

I've tinkered with a million ideas over the years but this one is the only I have come across with the vital combination of reasonable POT and high action. I believe turnover is king - much rather 1% POT on 1000 bets than 100% POT on 2 bets.

Thanks again for the input - the strength of this forum is the collective wisdom of the participants.

Cheers,

Hammers.
