Your previous posts are just numbers on a screen to me. Don't know how you came up with them.

Show me, a 37 spin series, showing level stakes compared with this staking system. If you are right, then I will lose more than $10.

Forget about any limits, start at $10 and see where it takes you....


I have now actually completely examined a 37 spin game, but first I'd like some indication that you'd be able to understand my results.

A 2 spin-game is the simplest possible using your staking. How can you NOT understand it!

Don't you understand what your 4 possible results will be?

Are you unaware that the win probability is 18/37 and a loss is 19/37?

Or that the probability of 2 independent events both occurring is the product of their individual probabilities?

If you don't know what expectation is then google it up.

Work through at least my simple 2-spin example. I suspect one of us will then learn something.
