Popular Betting Strategies

[hulla]

The page you linked is extremely difficult for me to browse from a desktop at 100% zoom- the text font is tiny and all the same color, and I have to scan through all this. It's accessible, but not very neat. The page overall seems like something out of 2008 or something of the sort, too.

I like that the flaws of the Martingale method are linked on the site. There's been lots of discussion here and elsewhere about the method, and although the consensus is that the method really doesn't work at all, there are always people that ignore advice- nice to see that you pointed out the flaws of the method with math to make it clear that it doesn't really work.

Rather than on sites design one thing that caught my attention is on this.





Btw, going back on topic no matter how these betting strategies are popular it would still have the same outcome or results would vary on how lucky you are.

Well said buddy because no bettibg strategies were truly good and profitable secrets and the strategies ever existed are base on guessing the result of the game just like the cryptocurrency technical analysis in trading aspect. However, every real gambler won't believe so much in it cause we both know no one can beat the gamble company unless such person cheated through a secret means.

IMO, it's depend on what type of gambling do you play.
For example :
dice , martiangle is great way to earn quick profit
Poker, if you have guts and luck , you will win big ,today

So there are no guarantee that same strategy will make you win, you need to improved your strategy and recycle with new one every period.

That's why I always suggest mixing, it's the only thing that can work. Play dirty, aggressive, make surprised bets, but all that works for luck based games. Poker on the other side can be tricky, you play against other people and you never know how crazy they are, maybe they will try to bluff you and to get some crazy river card and knock you from your chair. I can say that losing some crazy poker hand make me more nervous than losing two times more money on dices, poker is crazy game and if you play it a lot you can see everything, with luck based games you know where you are, you play against casino.

There really aren't any fool proof strategies bith for luck based and skill based games. Martingale can only take you so far depending on how big your capital is. Being unpredictable in poker can sometimes backfire on you. And upsets happen even in the most lopsided sport matchups.

Yes its because these strategies will never work all the time, and in the long run due to greed and fear and emotion, you will lose money anyways.

Casinos don't care if you use strategies at all since they know that none of them work.

For example, I remember years ago I was at some casino. And this girl asked while she was at the Blackjack table if she could use the "Blackjack Cheat Sheet" which basically tells you how to bet, depending on what type of hand you are dealt and to my surprised they let her use it. And she lost anyways.

Casinos just want you to think there are some secret strategies so you think you have some "edge" and it gets you to gamble and lose your money.

It looks more like a "academic paper on betting strategies" rather than betting strategies.
I mean I was honestly waiting for stuff like martingale and stuff that are similar to it and not this one. This is more like what you would do on a research paper for your school on statistics or economics type of class as a project instead of actually making a website around it.

It is too professional and honestly too "different" in a way that it shows the ideas and descriptions instead of the actual simple wikipedia type "this is how martingale works, this is how bluff works" type of explanation stuff which I was honestly expecting when I read the topic title and clicked to get here.

My opinion on martingale was always negative. It seems to work at first and than it doesn't and you lose it all. If martingale was a strategy that allowed to earn quick profit, like you are saying, people would be using it all the time and casinos would have to forbid it. They aren't forbidding it because it doesn't work.
Card counting in blackjack used to work but it doesn't in an online casino. For it to work you have to know they have only 1 deck, not 3 or 4.

When you are against the house then it is already normal for them to make such steps or prohibitions when it comes to a particular strategy that can be used against them so its no surprise to have such
set-up like what you have said on blackhack. There are lots of betting strategies which is good because gamblers can test it out and to make some enjoyment into your bets but sadly most
of us do treat it as a holy grail to make ourselves to be rich and end up to be wrecked because of those false hopes.

There is no perfect strategy in gambling and no exception with martingale. Martingale works for some time but if we use it over and over again, sure there will be a time when we won't able to continue our game due to lack of balance,  surpass the max bet that allowed on a gambling site and so on.

Someone told me it was close to the Martingle method. But when I play games like Blackjack, Dice and Roulette.  I use the strategies

X's 1, X's 1, X's 2, X's 2, X's 4, X's 6, X's 10
Play it until you loose.
So if your first bet is $10 it would be:
10,10,20,20,40,60,100

I have recently start changing it though to:
10,15,20,30,60,100 it gets you to the 10s 10 bet quicker but if you catch a BJ the first 3 hands then if you loose you are up 20-40 dollars!

I just reversed the method when playing blackjack, only to bully opponents to force them to fold. so if the initial bet is $ 10, then the next is:
10, 50, 100, 30.10
but if the third round gets an increase, then the multiples are 2, and so on.

I have seen couple that really surprised me a lot. For example there is no really strategy that could potentially win on dice because no matter what you do house edge still gets you however during sports betting you could play the odds apparently.

There was a strategy where gamblers use to determine which is more likely to win and look at the odds and even if the probable loser has a better odd given to them than the chances than they bet on the probable loser side. Just because of the better odds. If you are going to give some probable win team very very tiny amount of odd than there is potentially no reason to risk the money. I think that is why there are still people who bet on other sides of gambling and keep the sportsbooks honest about the odds because if you don't bet on the other side than they would slightly try to change their odds to that side.

I remember when I was using martingale to play dice and roulette, I just realized that at the end of it all, it is not that the strategy stuck, at least if you want to play long it is good, but at the end of the day, it is the luck that matters in most cases.

I see strategies just as a way to guide you in the way you play at least when it comes to picking the bets and so on, but at the end of it all, what will be would be, and that is one thing I have always known with gambling. It is either you get lucky or not, and since the odds always tend to you losing than winning, you will only require great deal amount of luck to get anything from gambling or a strategy.

I personally think it's better to profit through referrals, I recently started playing on EOSPlay and their referral system is really good.

[Supercrypt]

That is normally most part of it. Strategies are just some times ways to make ourselves happy or have the hope that it can help us get something out of our gambling activities, but at the end it is all about the luck in most cases. 
Whether  it is martingale, labouchere or name them, it is still how your luck plays out as most of the time, there is absolutely no way you can easily beat the house edge to it as they always win anyway while you will keep losing with your dream strategy.

If it helps and it is safe then you should continue to use the referrals system. But also be sure that it is benefit to others as well and not just for yourself. Because people join based on your recommendations and would expect that even they can make money and not just you.

[drlukacs]

Unless we're talking about betting/wager on real-life result (sports, election or other major event results) where in-depth analysis or research might be needed, all strategy rely on your luck and how fast the the increment before you out of money.

Yeah. I think the title of this post should be: "Popular strategies to lose your money". Casinos are very interested in teaching people "strategies" so they believe they can beat the house but they will lose their money.

LOL. There are so many guys believe that they are much smarter than the house but seem like almost these guys lost all their money to the house ). No matter it's dice, sport bet or any kind of gambling, no matter how many strategies do you guys have but the winner always be the house cause amount of money the house lose always much smaller than amount of money the house get from other gamblers

[mallorcagold]

My opinion is that there are no real betting strategies if the factor luck is heavily involved. At the end the house always wins.

I only believe in becoming profitable in gambling by playing poker or by betting on sports. In both you have ' a little' bit of control. Also in both you can use extra software to support you. for example HUD for poker. And for sportsbetting you have several software providers to make sportbetting profitable.

Playin casino games or slots even with a strategy will never make you profits in the long run. Cause not a single strategy can exclude the house edge

[KingZee]

I wonder why people don't try reverse martingale.
Instead of always betting high or low, every time you lose, switch your bet. The probability of you landing a straight series of < 50% is exactly the same as the probability of you landing a perfect sequence of High Low High Low..

Regardless of the fact that martingale can't work unless you have infinite balance, you should know that regardless of strategy, it's always the same issue. The only problem with martingale is that once you start streaking those losses, is it really profitable to keep going?
10,20,40,80,160. Just after 4 more bets, you're risking 16 times the initial amount, all that for what? A measly 10$ in case you win?

Luck based games should be taken at face value, they're luck based games. Don't push your luck because you're definitely going to get burned, best strategy imo would be to just split the whole balance you feel like gambling on 3, and test your luck with three 33% dice rolls. You either double your balance, 1.5x your balance, or lose it all.

Martiangle if you know when to stop and you are lucky enough to dont get on a bad streak at the start.
