Bear with me, this is a bit of a wordy explanation but I don't know how else to explain it.
Once upon a time, I got the idea I could beat the marginal odds enjoyed by casino's at the roulette table and decided to test my theory using online betting sites.
Standard distribution tends to follow a bell curve, and it's at both extremes of that bell curve that I felt it was possible to manipulate the odds slightly in my favour.
A typical roulette wheel has thirty seven numbers, 1-36 and a zero. I mention the zero separately becaue that is the house advantage. The reason for this is that all the other numbers can be bet on in various ways.
Odd/Even, 1-12/ 13-24/ 14-36, Black/Red and three 'rows'. None of these methods include the zero, so every time zero comes up the house wins everything (if people bet on zero they have reduced their odds of winning massively down to 1 in 37 so they don't do it).
Obviously it's possible to string together a short run of wins for the punter, but over time, for the casino, that 1 in 37 advantage is what makes it profitable.
Now, in order to overcome this I decided to use a martinet system as a base. Simply put, this is where you start your first bet with 1, and if you lose you double down until you win, then you go back to betting 1 again.
This theory is totally impossible to win with because roulette frequently throws up runs of reds, or blacks, or evens etc. so that the doubling affect quickly hits house limits on bets and you lose a huge amount of money.
However, it is possible to pre-load the odds and limit the doubling by bailing out of a run once it hits a certain amount. Also, betting on the 1 in 3 odds sectors can eke the raising cost to a few more spins before hitting the limit.
Now, I tried various different levels before hitting on one that worked in theory and tried it out for real with real money. I made money for two weeks and then it wouldn't work again, ever. So I adapted my theory and tried again.
Once more it lasted two weeks and then failed. This happened six times in a row, forcing me to conclude that they had a smart system running on their casino that analysed bets and worked out any pattern you might be using, then interjected a losing bet at the critical point to ensure you lost. Not enough to form it's own pattern in isolation, but I detected it due to the pattern of its operation.
So what I did then (at this point I was down £3000) was to combine all 6 variations at once. This was a nightmare to track six differnt betting patterns simultaneously without losing track, but I managed with a few mistakes here and there.
Over the course of the next month I not only made back my £3000 I made £800 profit. At which point I invested the £800 in a new laptop and exercise bike and quit due to nervous exhaustion.
I tell you all this because my mind is starting to recognise that there are many plans in motion, not one. Each plan exists in its own right and is not dependent on the others if one should fail, the others pick up the slack.
Overall there is an inexorable progress towards victory, but when most people try to analyse 'the plan' they are overwhelmed by what appears to be chaos and things that don't seem related. Again, this is because there are multiple plans in motion.
It would take an advanced AI to analyse the patterns and pull out all the various plans that are consistent within themselves. I can only tell that this is happening because of the above experience and the way my mind 'feels' numbers etc.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading, and well done! ( and welcome to a glimpse into my mind that I rarely share).
Very astute.
This is the same way they have gamed the election system.
Not just one facet of their scheme put them over the top, be it mail-in ballots, destroying/deleting ballots, switching votes with the machines, or running ballots over and over again.
Each one added up, and then they get to claim individually that each wasn't enough to sway the election.
Sure, EACH didn't do enough to swing the vote, but ALL TOGETHER they did.
Then they can, as you did, dance between protecting the various methods through the media, and by the time you finally have a comprehensive mapping of their control scheme, enough time has passed that they've already cashed out and are looking towards the next election cycle.
Either way you cut it, it's all about finding a system that's impossible to predict. By switching between various methods as you did, you managed to introduce a significant degree of randomization that cannot be accounted for because your whimsy in choosing a particular method order is not something a computer can reliably quantify.
Ultimately, it touches on what makes humans unique -- the ability to make radical decisions which follows no predictable pattern. In other words, humans can base decisions not on conditioning, behavior, or static random noise. Humans can pull decisions and ideas out of a place only God can conceive of with perfect clarity. A place between places, a thought between thoughts.
Bing, bang, boom -- you beat the "system" because you're a human who constantly redefines the constant variables, which makes them not constant at all.
Esoterically, this is called the Divine Spark.
You put it to use, applied what you knew, and created a system that demands the scope of the universe, in this case the casino's algorithm, to expand to contain it.
That's what divinity is made of. Manifest Destiny, yo.
Very nicely put. The only small point I would make is that I used all the various methods at the same time, not just in a random order :)
How many games were you running at once?
I thought you were involved in one game, but used 6 methodologies.
Were they in tandem, as in, you made several bets at once, or was it one bet for one methodology per spin?
If it was the former, where you made several bets at once, then hat's off to you, that incredible.
It was six bets at once, all tracked seperately. Each bet with a different methodology.
I wouldn't recommend it ;)
You must be really smart
WOW.
Nicely worded connection between the post and voter fraud.
Fantastic analogy!
