Re: Martingale for SNGs
just think about this. if it takes 1,000,000 times to win you still are positive, if it takes infinity times you still are positive. Its just a matter of how long it takes till you win. If you have infinity time to play, infinity money to play with, and no max bet you will have to win at some point at which point you are positive and that can be repeated.

Re: Martingale for SNGs
this is a stupid debate because there is no such thing as an infinite bankroll.

Unless you play online. Online casino software can detect people using the Martingale system so the system rigs itself and makes you lose. [/ QUOTE ] Untrue

I think that he was being sarcastic. At least I really hope that he was being sarcastic.

Re: Martingale for SNGs
no there isnt, because with infinity tries you WILL win at some point. while it doesnt matter because its not physically possible, in theory you will win. You will not win with 1,000,000 tries, but infinity, yes.

Re: Martingale for SNGs
What if you used the martingale system on both red and black? Then every time the wheel stops your winning one bet.
Wouldnt you? fwiw, it was this type of EV thinking for roulette that started my obsession for poker.

Re: Martingale for SNGs
The problem with your debate is that the points you're now arguing have absolutely no substance.
"You WILL win at some point." Well...why? Can you prove it? "Not necessarily." Can you prove it? Someone who knows the foundation of these arguments is going to step in and say "you guys are dumb, it's ____ because of ____." I don't know what the second blank is, so I can only ask you guys to fill it in.
