I was trying to do a roulett technique, without the right amount of money, and I just lost 120$.I knew I did not have enough money to do the strat. But did it any way.

That’s not how I’m betting.

You’re the one that doesn’t understand.

So walk me through how it would work. Say we have a coin flip game, and you can choose heads or tails. If you get it right you win a dollar, if you get it wrong you lose a dollar. You can bet, or just watch me flip.

Walk me through an example of how your system would be able to beat this game. I'm genuinely curious, because maybe I am just misunderstanding you.

You double your losses EVERY TIME you loose. You reset your strategy every time you win. You stay betting on one side the whole time.

Do the math.

Seriously, if you want, I’m will to do face time test. With chips, and a coin.

Or zoom. But I hate zoom.

Oh yeah I see what you mean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martingale_(betting_system)

It sucks because when you win, you only win a small amount. And then if you have a losing streak long enough, you eventually run out of money because you have to keep doubling. I've tried it, but maybe there's a new twist to it you've figured out

Not really a new twist. Bring lots of money.

And reset.

I’m going to do a trial run tomorrow night. I’ll update everyone .
