Gambling Systems

Your online resource center for info on gambling systems.

There are many different gambling systems that are used and the following is an introduction to a few ways to structure your betting. These gambling systems only serve as a starting point for gamblers looking to learn more about how to beat online casinos.

The first and safest of the gambling systems is called "insurance betting systems." This is where you decrease the amount of your bet when you win, usually following a high initial bet or following short "let-it-ride" progressive wins. We find this is a good system for playing it safe.

Another of the simpler gambling systems is the "positive progression betting system." In this system you increase the bet when you win. Kind of like "letting-it-ride" but requires less capital and usually employed to take advantage of winning streaks.

A more complex system called, the D'Alenbert System, runs the risk of experiencing a big loss after working up your wins as opposed to some of the safer gambling systems above. With this system you increase your wager by one unit after each loss. You decrease by one unit after each win. For example, say you begin at $1. If you lose, you bet $2, or two units. If you lose again, you bet $3, or three units. If you win the third bet, you drop back to $2. Another immediate win will cause you to drop to one unit, or $1. In other words, you change your unit after every win or loss.

Another of the gambling systems is the Martingale System. It is an easy system to understand. Say your first bet is $1. If you win the bet, you start again at $1. If you lose the bet, you double the next bet. Winning the next bet gives you a win of $1 ($1 lost, followed by $2 won). If you lose again, though, you double your bet again, this time to $4. And again, a win at this stage results in $1 ($1 lost, $2 lost, and $4 won). So it continues until you win. Given a "normal" sequence, it should not be too long before you register a win that covers your losses and provides a profit of $1. Using blackjack as an example, in only eight hands, you would have to bet $128 to win back $1.
