I'll add my spin to what Arci said:
1) People have the right to play however they want. If they choose to use win goals, loss limits, the size of waitresses' hooters, whatever to increase/decrease the size of their wagers, more power to them.
2) People do not have the right to claim that their "personal style" of play is better than optimal play, no matter the results, if mathematical proofs exist to demonstrate that their style of play is not better than optimal play. That is, after all, what a mathematical proof is -- it proves something.
3) Claiming that a "personal style" of play is better, going forward, than optimal play does indeed spill over into the realm of being deceitful.
Personally, I think waitress hooter size is a fine way to increase/decrease denomination changes. I also think sessions should end when transvestites hit on you and they are not pretty. In fact, I bet the Dietz Progression System would be a helluva lot more fun than whatever Singer advocates, and my overall EV will be higher because the only "special plays" will have to do with codpieces and learning to wolf whistle.
