    Labby Lines

    What percentage do you need to hit at in order to clear them?

    Over the long term. I've heard everything from 33 to 60 percent.

    1u-1u-1u-1u-->(1+1)
    if win clear two units and your line becomes
    1u-1u-->(1+1)
    if you lose
    1u-1u-1u-1u-2u-->(1+2)

    Would be a standard way of doing it. There are small variations of course but the concept of minimizing the risk is the same. I'm wondering what percentage you would need to be hitting at in order to be successfully clearing the lines.

    Instead of bumping you could just do a search for labby or labouchere as the topic has been discussed several times. You only need to win 1/3 of your bets to clear a labby line. It requires discipline and patience....not something most gamblers nor people in general have anymore.
