      well he gets paid to post from a site that gets paid by books that make money off of losing players

      so why would he give advice that would help people win? or even lose less?

        This is the reality of the mathematics of the situation. But this lesson is more psychological. If you know that this condition exits then you can better cope with it, not chase losses, and not constantly feel like you are behind and have to “make a move” to get caught up simply because your roll is less than its highest point.

        Eliminate the psychological need to catch up and you are bound to make better decisions moving forward. This thinking may not add a winning play to your day, but it sure as hell may take you off of a losing play.

        In sports betting, a penny saved in this fashion is most certainly a penny earned...

          ^^ that is some weird advice... so you're saying only 1 out of every 20 days is going to be a record high for someone hitting 60%?
