    There you have it... one of Sammy's secrets
    that is a very good one.

    Ballerholic, your chase is missing a critical element. The contingency.
    For example if you were going to do a Milwaukee Bucks home game chase,
    you would bet on them to win at home until it happens always covering the
    carried wagers. There is no contingency here, so it's not truly a chase or a fade.
    by introducting new contingencies in every bet, you're not increasing the odds
    that you win.

    That's good point. I'll have to look into it a little more.

    what a dumb f\*\*k

    You don't increase the odds by playing the same team. No wonder vegas has so much money, you should really educate yourself if you're going to gamble.

    Chases statistically don't work. There was a great website that i saw years ago that let you did simulations on any betting system. Chase, fabinacci, etc. I think a lot of guys would see it as eye opening. It may still be up, do a search for it on google.

    So your risking $42 to win $2.50, and then you repeat. Uhhhh how are we non get to $1400 again? I'm confused.

    So basically our goal is to win on every bet. Ideally we want to win $2.5 nine times and then move on to winning $5 nine times and then progress from there. However we cant win every time so if we lose a bet to win $2.5 then we have to chase on the next bet. But if we lose 4 times in a row then that is where chasing really hurts and that is what happened the first time.

    So last night I started a new chase and we won so we are now up $2.5.

    So we are down $41.3 from the last chase, let's call it Chase A. And in this new chase, Chase B, we are up $2.5
