    I think math can help you win, but because you cannot control the RNG you are taking a chance with every push of the button. And that chance is your "luck," whether it be good or bad. And, that "chance" means you are gambling. Or do you see it differently?
    If you only look at each hand individually you will think it's all luck. If you look at all your play then you will find the results are within a range of results. The gambling part fades away when you realize your results over time are quite predictable.

    That fact holds for any system you use. It doesn't matter if someone thinks using the dufus system will make them a winner. Over time the math will determine how they do within a range of results.
