Progressive Betting Strategies (any game):
Progressive betting systems have, most likely, been thought of and used for
hundreds of thousands of years because people started gambling hundreds of
thousands of years ago, but it seems they really started when there became a
real house to play against in France. Before the casino, gambling was less
organized and bets could be more easily refused and a progression was precarious
because it could be stopped on the whim of the individual taking a bet.
What is Progressive Betting?
In a nutshell progressive betting is a strategy whereby a gambler changes the
amount of his wager based on the previous outcome(s) (win/loss) in the game. By
doing so, the player can maximize his profits in the short term, although in the
long term the odds are still against him/her.
