Video series from my friend Paul Smith on progressive staking. Great series clearly presented.

Just for a second, I thought this was another martingale thread!

It's a variation of martingale.

What about regressive staking, it's bigger stakes when you're doing well and smaller when you're losing? ..... But if course that doesn't excite the chasers who aren't ever doing well. I can't see the point of a live trial tbh when it's been done 1000 times with data analysis and it's probably the first thing many of us look at as beginners when we can't make a profit.

It starts off nice and scientific and then he goes and uses just a few thousand real life bets.

Just use excel to generate a near-infinite set of random 'results' with an expectation of, say, 99% return and watch every possible staking plan lose the same % in the long run.

Paul’s mission is educational and I give him kudos for putting himself out there and creating some content. We all know the answer in advance and he has it up front on his first slide in his hypothesis. I think it is an interesting way of trying to educate.

Yep, I also give Paul kudos for putting himself out there in the challenge against me.

Paul's progressive staking strategy results - final video released - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ1zJHhg3Gs

I'll be tempted to post this in response to each Martingale strategy that gets posted here.
