Well, I decided to mess with some formula betting today in the NBA since it was a short schedule (3 games). The result so far is 2 for 2 and the third game is playing. I normally would not bring up formula betting, but it’s a common thing with people who use computer predicting programs. I think a formula can help aid the sports handicapping process, but it should not be used solely. Who’s to say that today’s formula will work tomorrow? Ok, let’s take a peak at this NBA sports betting formula to see what it entails.

Today, I am going to talk to you about an idea for a blackjack strategy. It’s called a ladder. You can call it an up and down progression chain if you wish. This blackjack strategy is easy to implement and you might find it gives you the opportunity to win more money. I am going to give you the basic concept and show you what happened over a quick 20-hand test. As with any blackjack strategy that revolves solely around money management, the player factors in heavily. For example, a blackjack player that makes poor decisions will destroy any chance a money management strategy has of working.

I often see mass confusion when it comes to probabilities—especially when it comes to systems. There are, in my mind, two probability numbers for each set of conditions. I feel it is necessary to explain this further to not only educate my visitors, like you, but to ensure that when you read my articles, you know what I am talking about.

I am often asked for a gambling system for Baccarat. Baccarat is one of the best casino games to play. I think many people don’t play it because of the lack of interaction. You basically bet the bank or player then sit back and watch the dealer work. The house advantage on Baccarat is very low and there are a couple “systems” to playing this game.

The first thing many people think of when counting cards is mentioned is the Rainman (movie). However, counting cards is not about knowing what exact card is coming out and is not that difficult. When a player counts cards, that player is trying to utilize math to determine the value range of the remaining cards. By knowing this, your probability of knowing, or guessing, the next card increases dramatically. Counting cards in single-deck blackjack is very easy and it becomes more of a challenge as the number of decks increase.

Or is it? I came across, from a friend, a craps gambling system that touted itself as the worlds safest system. Imagine my surprise when I saw the system was basically one I developed many years ago while in dealer’s school for dice. Yes, they actually had a “school” to learn how to deal. I happen to think it was just a way to rake in government grants, but that’s beside the point. Anyway, this system, had you purchased it would get in you hot water right off the hop—no pun intended.

Do a search at your favorite search engine for “Gambling Systems” and you will most likely come up with thousands upon thousands of opportunities to buy so-called “sure thing” gambling systems. In my late night browsing, I came upon one for sports betting from a self-touted “professional” that claimed to be a risk-free way to bet sports. This line was my first tip-off that this person was no professional. First of all, when you put one penny down on a bet, you are risking something. Furthermore, there is no bet in the casino that is without some degree of risk. Pick any game you want, there’s risk involved.
