For the umpteenth time, walking away with a profit has nothing to do with challenging the ER or overcoming the casino edge. Do you not understand the concept? What is the problem here that you are having?
Alan, it is you having the problem. I guess your memory must be failing you. I've stated about a zillion times already that anyone playing any ridiculous strategy can walk away a winner occasionally. I thought we had put that question behind already. But no, you keep resorting to that issue over and over again. Write down somewhere ... "arc realizes anyone can win in the short term".

I've always been referring to winning on a negative machines over time. Got it?

That is what you are claiming your win/loss strategies will do. You have stated it many times. And, that is what I'm saying is not doable because it would mean you're return was better than than the optimal return. Sorry, no betting strategy can accomplish that task. It has been PROVEN mathematically which means it is just as valid as 2+2=4.
