I'd like to isolate the discussions about Rob Singer's systems to this thread. I think it is worthy of its own thread and will keep the discussion easier to follow.

I first interviewed Rob about his special plays and his believe about video poker machines not being random. At the time I had no idea about his RTT and ARTT systems for changing games and denominations.

And while SPS was played by me at very hi denominations, it can be adjusted downward to make it compatible with anyone. But it is much more complex than either of the strategies I mentioned above. I can make a consistent winner out of anyone who has an excellent aptitude for the game.
I do believe that if you do have a large bankroll that you can chase your losses and move up in denomination to eventually hit a big win that will wipe out previous losses and give you a profit. I don't believe, however, that most casino visitors or casual players or recreational players, can afford to do this.

The following is for Rob, responding to various comments he made in another thread reacting to my criticism of this strategy:

Actually Rob, you have to take a step back and realize you are also an "AP" but its the Singer AP system that you're talking about. And I think you're crazy using a $173,000 bankroll and willing to chase losses to the tune of $53,000 just to have a win goal of $2500.

I think recreational players, who have a set bankroll, should play the best available pay tables, take their wins or cut their losses, and at the same time take advantage of all of the casino comps and slot club promotions, they can. I think they will have a more enjoyable time than playing your way.

But you and your followers are free to do whatever you like because it's your money.

Just believe me, I am very happy and content not chasing losses -- playing the amount that is comfortable -- and enjoying the wins when they come and not worrying about losing too much and having to move up to higher denominations to break even after digging myself into a hole.

And I think that's what you are suggesting: if you don't win big at smaller denominations, just move up in denomination to play catch up. I don't think that's how I want to enjoy a visit to a casino. I don't want that pressure when I play.
