    I have always said the reason I can do this is because there's only 37 or 38 pockets on a wheel which isn't very many. If there were 60 or 90 I couldn't do this. I've gone to random.org and gotten random columns of numbers that are 60 or 70 or 80 numbers long and I can't do what I can do with the 36 numbers in roulette.
    Then you could work miracles with 3 possible outcomes. Yes or No?

    All these people have redeeming qualities but I haven't seen it with Spike. Awful.
    The great thing about gematria is no inherent redeeming qualities, and, so, no chance, or even way, of thus taking yourself seriously. In general, no way to end up like the characters on gambling, and other, forums. I mean, how long has this stupid shit been seriously going on? Ha.

    That's not a fair question. I don't claim anything specific and I have a history of offering nothing, much less the Holy Grail.

    Such a keen legal mind you have there, dawg.

    Dagnabit.

    I don't miss practicing law at all: those elitist pricks can take that "hot mess" and shove it up their jury box.

    It is much more fun to sleep late, work out daily, go online, read for pleasure, travel, gamble, visit family and friends and stay up late listening to Bob Moses et al while blazing KGB than it is talking to educated assholes while making more money than I needed or arguably deserved.

    Yes sir, leaving the swamp, voluntarily or not, was a sharp play.

    I don't understand the question what do you mean.

    I don't have the Holy Grail, there is no such thing. And it's not an unfair question.

    Now, is Spikes 'outcome-based method' steeped in a deep understanding of this alternative math? Unlikely. But that's not to say there might not be some basis for his outcome-based approach.
    'Might allow AP's to adjust their play based on observation of outcomes' is the best analysis of what I do I've seen in a long time. This is why I come to these places because once in awhile an insight like this comes along.
    Unfortunately, this won't work for you Spike.
    You have already said this method works for you in actual play, on a practice wheel, and with a random number predictor. So this theory wouldn't apply across a RNG and a physical wheel. Nope, you can't take Unowne's theory and
    run with it - try again.

    Spike, you most likely have the common, but false Poppy belief that PAST RESULTS can affect FUTURE OUTCOMES.

    Yes, Unowme is correct. The most common Roulette example is Clocking a Bias wheel. Spikes "number guessing" wouldn't work with a manual wheel and a RNG using the exact same technique.

    In fact I say this so often I should have it tattooed on my arm. Past results cannot and do not have any effect on future outcomes. I've said it literally hundreds of times. And I don't care if you think the Uknowme theory doesn't apply to me, it sounds exactly like what I do and that's close enough for me. The problem is you people think you know everything that's going on with roulette and you don't know jack shit. All you know is what you've been told and you think that's the truth, all the truth, and nothing but the truth and that's as far as you're willing to look.

    Yep, this was a perfect example. I run into this constantly.

    I must say, I am extremely tempted to take a look at a forum like Gambling Forums where Voodoo/Ploppy nonsense is discussed. I do really wonder if the "system players" challenge and debate each other? lol. Most of these guys only stay around for a short time, until they go busto and realize their system was bunk all along. But they can't at least admit it before they leave. I have to give one thing to Spike, he has stuck around for 2 decades, but then again, much of his time is spent, "practicing" LOL.

    Have you actually looked at forums like Gambling Forum, or are you just tempted to look?

    Do you really wonder if the "system players" challenge and debate each other, or are you familiar with forums like Gambling Forum such that you know what goes on?

    I must say, that's unclear from your post above.

    You know what a concert a concert pianist does? They practice on average three to four hours a day everyday. They have to practice or they lose their skill. Because I have a method and not a system I also have to practice in between when I'm not playing. For some reason you think this is odd. You think beating roulette is easy? Previous outcomes have no influence on future outcomes, so all you have to go on is the skill you've learned from observation. I'm going to be practicing later today before I play. It's part of my life.

    If I could see the light you are shining to an 80% hit rate on roulette. I could start a cat foundation that would ensure no cat is ever homeless or hungry again. Shine the light. No candles. We need high lumens for this. So far, all I'm getting is "secret recipe".

    Is card-counting a method or a system?

    In any case, my understanding is that card-counters practice.

    At least that's what was portrayed in the movies.

    Poker players practice too, they even have coaches who help them practice.

    Why don't you prime the lamp and share one of your current plays?

    Maybe that will inspire him to help enlighten you as a requital.

    None of my plays could hold a candle to what this guy is claiming.
