Bhagwan, thanks for that, does that mean 40 losers?? i.e. say I have a method that selects one horse in race 1 and one horse in race 2, overall there is a S/R of 29%+, but I use a progression method basically backing the 2 selections as one bet, then progress week to week.
to clarify say the first bet is 1 unit, then the stake is 1/2 unit on each, if both lose the next bet is say.. 2 units.. so 1 unit on each etc etc , now if both lose obviously thats a total loss, but if one wins at say 3-1, then the overall return is equal to 1-1, if both win thats a bonus. Like wise if one wins at evens or less then there is a return so not a total loss.
So when you say a likely losing run at some time is 20 does that mean 40 losers?
