    justin 7 would prolly have the most insight on this.


    lets say we start with 100.00 bankroll bet jam 2.00 min bet thats 2 percent


    7 days a week at 2.00 a game 5 games per day so 10.00 per day 70.00 a week and after each week we add money to the bankroll and adjust are wagers higher.say a bad week we lose 50.00 ill add 75.00 would this give you a edge in the long term.

    Suppose you walk onto your driveway and your neighbour offers you -110/-110 on coin flips. And suppose you agree to this.

    Do you really think running into the house after a loss and getting more cash, or doubling your bet size after a win, is going to help you beat your neighbour? About as likely as crossing your fingers during each flip.

      it lowers variance though say i lose 70 percent of my roll based on 100.00 ill have 30.00 left and if i add 100.00 ill have 130.00 going into week 2 down 70.00 but ill my bets can increase 0.30 so instead of 2.00 a game like 2.50-3.00 and do the same after week 2.i dont know if it makes sense but following this seems to work on my model but i havent tested it.ima keep ya posted im starting it tonight.

        what gives you the edge are the odds not the money you add.
