What I did was adjust a number of certain holds in order that large winners could sometimes appear, and hope they might be often and big enuf to keep me in the black. If I did this long enough then the math says I'd be a loser in the inexplicable "long term". But for the relatively short amount of time I played the strategy, good luck appeared often enuf that I was able to meet my 5% of bankroll win goal much more often than I failed to do so. Every aspect of the strategy was built around allowing good luck to show up more often than usual, and at relatively higher denominations. And with a non-greedy (because of the $50k+ session bankroll) 5% win goal of minimum $2500, most sessions ended with a win--with some ending with huge wins.The losing sessions? 95% weren't that bad, because of the many soft profit cashouts that were never played again along the way.
The double up bug was indeed an advantage play. There is an argument to be had as to whether it was cheating (getting paid a multitude of the amount you should be paid for the money wagered), but it was an advantage play. I think it can be both. But it doesn't even matter because it was NOT your play. You stole that story from Kane and Nestor and the news.
As for your VP strategy. Just complete nonsense, just like EvenBob. your explanation is that "good luck appeared often enough". Give me a break.
I go back to something I said in the first post of this thread. If you had won what you claimed playing the DU bug and various other Singer nonsensensical betting systems (betting systems don't change the advantage), and you had this holy grail, basically a license to print money, you and the wife wouldn't have continued working and you wouldn't have a record full of bankruptcies and evictions and legal judgements against. Just the same as if EvenBob had some magical winning system, he wouldn't have been driving a cab and managed or owned a bar. And Mdawg wouldn't be chasing down people that had been involved in car accidents.
The stories you guys tell fall apart on so many levels but none more so that that.
