During the Brighton festival 1 of the wheels came up 34 5 times in a row, the casino lost a fair chunk on the 5th!

One of the croupiers told me he once spun 24 and 28 in turn for 14 spins! He was gutted as it doesnt count for any records as it was 2 diffrent numbers.

Then maybe it would be an idea to get them to imagine they are running a casino. Would they want punters to use this system?

SYSTEMS SMISHTEMS.

Listen closely I will say this only once.

"There is no system ever invented that has worked or indeed could work.If there had been, then the whole gambling world would implode ,out ,of existence."

Trust me I've tried all of them.Read many books on the subject, from the "How I broke the bank of Monte Carlo" to the learned text book type tome.

They are all the same and connot work. Spend your thinking time on higher thoughts.......................I've done all the thinking for you over the years, don't bother.












Except........

There IS a system on the dogs, which is spoken of in a whispered tone. that comes around every thirty years or so. This system does work, but anyone who attempts to re-use it is crushed, by Messrs HILL CORAL LaDBROKE Et AL.

I'd like to pass the system on to you all, but my life would not be allowed to continue.

Now.............................All you bright young things should put your minds to cracking this particular code. Cos sure as eggs are eggs, someone WILL try this system again.

Next time you see me ,Just ask,and I'll show you the scars from when I last used this system, but beware, think of the hell I've had to suffer knowing the secret.

I profit from poker largely due to bad players thinking they are good players and just 'unlucky'

Like i say though the wheel is a bit of fun, i play for the smallest stake possible and i play very rarely but there is fun to be had and well worth the price!

The Party Poker Blackjack bonuses lend themselves to a Martingale derivative system.

you get $100 bonus (only wager on /bj) - this usually has a 1000x work rate BUT if you join the bj table and make a profit. You then witdraw to your account Your profit is then yours and untouched when you rejoin the bj table so.. what you do is:

1] Get BJ strategy chart from wizardofoddz.com (its a well known standard strategy losing less than 0.5% per hand)

2] join BJ table:

2] bet $1 if lose bet $3 if lose bet $5 If win at any point cashout

4] When you rejoin then start at $1 again

5] Keep going until you bust (need 5 or six successive losses)

The reason this works is because a) its not your money b) the only way you can get the core money is through WR (BJ is very boring)  3] Party allow you to trim off profits in this manner.

Fail to see how this is aided by any kind of system.

Ahh, I see it now.

I'd still punt the bonus in one hand.

the EV wont be much different, and I'll save an hour.
