"The academics have taken over the assylum", expected run of outs????, fantasy stuff. I'd be more interested in expected run of ins. Useless information. What do you do when you come to the limit of your so called expected run of outs?, plonk what's left of your bank & confidence on the next selection? (does it know about your expected run of outs?), and if it gets beaten, what then ???

I have to agree with mark here, what actual value do these calculations have?
Any realistic punter knows he's going to hit a bad streak now & again, some worse than others, & no amount of planning or calculations can avoid this.
I would suggest instead of focusing on how best to protect your bank when the inevitable happens, with for example a 'stop loss' of some sort, that is suspend betting once a certain amount of losers in a row has been struck & start again once a winner strikes & the horror is over.
ps - which was advice I did read on this forum some time ago.
