Re: Loose Change

Though, in Jsarno's defense, if the goal is to go into the night, and quit as soon as any money is made, the probability of leaving with less than you started with is pretty low.

Of course, you get that one bad string of luck where you keep playing to try to finish above, you lose many months of work by the system.

Sample size is totally going to eat the system up every time. Doyle Brunson (many time poker champ) used to say that he would play a lot more hands when his luck was running hot because he 1) made better decisions, and 2) could capitalize on his luck run while sitting tight during a period of cold cards.

The difference between Roulette and Poker is that Sample Size will eventually kill any Roulette system if you play long enough, where a poker player can continue to profit at the expense of the other players.
