This is betting 101. It is not only people recommending martigale out there, it is also that they tend to mix it with other betting systems that are probably as useless - to put it softly - as this one. Doubling the bet does not work in math, does not work in practice and anyone who still holds a doubt about it should play some simulations with monopoly money. As said in the post, not even without betting limits is there any merit on it.
The issue is that is seems kind of intuitive to double the betting and that is why someone might be convinced.
Let them be smarter than you. It's their problem if they are using martingale or not.
Mathematically speaking...yea...probably you won't have a streak of 15-17 bets..but for being able to use martingale long enough your first bets in the line should be very small...
On the other hand in sports betting is useless...bookmakers are not allowing you to place stakes big enough when you are at a stage of 8-10 bet lost...you will reach the max limits or they will limit you first for forcing those bets.
In poker, slots ...blackjack...I have no idea, but in sports betting is not a sustainable staking strategy.
