Crash,

Howya going stranger, have been following this thread with interest, and have to agree with you, if you can't make it flat stakes then give it away.

The only progression is the % of your bank and even in that don't increase your bet from whatever % you are working to until your bank doubles THEN increase your bet by 50%.

I had 1 sojurn into progression betting and that was in the mid 80's.

I was backing 2 horses a race with a $4000 bank. My first bet was $2 per horse and the bet increased by approx 50% each race.

I used to run meeting to meeting as if 1 meeting, in other words if I finished the day on the 8th bet the next meeting I would start at the 9th bet.

I NEVER went bust, with most days running fine but then that dreaded run of outs would come and I was very glad I took a spare pair of undies with me.

I always held my ground and came out of it, but I ask you how many punters would start with a $2 bet ($4) with a $4000 bank and hang in when you were on your second last bet, not many.

Also very noticable you've mellowed in your posts.

Keep Well

If anyone out there is interested in this method let me know and I will post it.

It still works today, you won't win a fortune but it is very consistent, BUT you have to bet the % of bank I did and hang in on the underpants changing days.

Cheers
