Stake systems

We often hear something about a new system which is supposed to secure a win in a casino, lotto, bingo etc. Sometimes those systems are sold on the internet for enormous amounts of money with a guarantee of success. But, do they really work?

The truth is, they do add an element of entertainment to the game; However, they can not change the casino`s predominance, which is a part of any casino game. Stake systems can be divided into two types: positive progression and negative progression. In positive progression a gambler plays high after a win. In negative progression a gambler plays high after a loss. Here we have some popular and interesting stake systems used in casinos. The easiest way to try out these systems is to play i.e. red/black in roulette, they can be used in any game really.

In this system the player doubles the stake after the first win , and goes back to the basic stake after a loss. Let`s say, the stake is $1, you stake $2 after a win. If you win again, you stake $2 until you lose. Then go back to the basic stake of $1. The advantage of this system is that i.e. three wins in a row give you $5 profit, whereas three losses in a row make you only $3 short.

In this system, the player, not dependent on luck, wins at least one stake sooner or later - that`s the assumption. The player doubles the stake after each loss and goes back to the basic stake after a win. If the basic stake is $1, the player stakes $2 after a loss. If you lose again,you stake $4, $8, $14 etc. When, at last, you win a stake, your profit equals the basic stake ($1).

This is a type of parley system. If the basic stake is $1, you stake $3 after a win. If you win again, you stake $2 and then $6. You go back to $1 stake after $6, and you stake $1 until you lose again. You go back to $1 stake after each loss. If you lose the first stake, your loss equals $1. After the loss on the second level ($3) the loss equals $2. If you lose on the third level ($2) the profit equals $2. When you lose on the fourth level ($6) the loss is 0 (even Stevens). However, if you win the profit equals $12.

This is the system of stake progression , which ensures you with a high profit after three wins in a row. If the basic stake is $1, you stake $4 after a win. If you win again, you stake $5. Then, you go back to the basic stake ($1), until you lose a stake. After each loss you go back to $1 stake , as well. If you lose on the first level, your loss equals $1. The loss on the second level equals $3. If you manage to get to level three, the loss equals $0 (drow) when you lose. When you win, the profit equals $10.

It is the opposite of Martingale System. You double your stake after each win. You have to set a limit, obviously i.e. 2,3 or 4 times.

In this system you play a bit higher after a loss, and play low after a win. For example, you choose 7, 9 or 11 numbers , you stake starting from a middle number, i.e. 1-2-3-(4)-5-6-7. The starting stake is $4, after a loss you stake $5, and after the next loss you stake $6, $7. In case of a win the stake is lowered to $6, after the next win you stake $5 etc. The gamblers using this system say , that it secures you with approximately higher winning stakes than losses. One of known types of this system are stakes 1-2-3-(4)-7-11-17.

Stakes grow higher accordingly to the sequence: 1-1-2-3-5-18-21-34…..You have to notice that, each number is the sum of two previous ones. Depending on your preference, this system can be used in positive or negative progression.

In this system, after each loss you double your stake and add one basic stake (1 , 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127 etc.). After a win, just like in Martingale , you stake the basic stake ( three wins in a row : 1, 1, 1). This system guarantees the profit of one basic stake, with each spin of the roulette wheel or one deal of cards. Although, there could be more losses than winnings ( only till you run out of money to keep playing high).
