Progressive Betting
“Where Winners Start?”

A Big Loss

Gambling is not much different from anything else in life. You usually learn from your mistakes.  Those who learn from their mistakes become better, and those who don’t end up making the same mistakes; sometimes endlessly. My friends and I were fishing some years ago, and I caught a catfish. For the life of me, and I don’t recall why, I decided to toss the fish high into the air, about 40 feet over the tippy canoe.  I think the plan was for the catfish to come splashing into the water beside the canoe.  The catfish instead decided it would viciously attack me and came straight down at my head.  It's quite amazing how many things can flash through your mind in a matter of 2.4 seconds.  When I swatted the hell-fish away at the last second, one of its barbs stabbed completely through my finger. I almost bled to death on the one hour trip to the hospital. I’ll never do that again. No one in that boat will ever let me forget it either. Whenever they have a chance, the story is told…I can laugh about it now. My point here is that I learned…the hard way, not to be such a stupid idiot next time.

Most Blackjack players start out with big losses.  The game is unforgiving for those who fail to learn. Not only will these players never win, they will be the reason the casino never loses.  However, the players who persevere, learning from their losses, become a threat to the casino.  That is our goal for you. We don’t want you to slowly “bleed to death”, but end up laughing hysterically with your friends…at the casino’s expense. 

The player who thinks he has a “system”, and doesn’t know how to play the game is like a catfish out of water…unless something freaky and very unusual happens, this unfortunate player is usually not a threat to anyone. In the long run, this type of player will be eaten by the casino. So before you play any “systems” in casinos, you must first take the time to learn the game, inside and out. 

Increasing Who’s Odds? 

Progressive betting is what makes bad players worse.  The idea is to raise your bet, usually after losses occur, in a manner meant to eventually recoup your losses. Some progressive betting systems get extremely complicated, and usually those are the better ones, invented by expert players. 

We have mixed feelings about the progressive bettor. We know that, thanks to books, the Internet, and the casinos, players have been mislead into thinking they know how to play the game Blackjack.  This was exposed with our Playing 21 Program.  If players knew how to play the game, obviously some of the better progressive systems would be more effective. The problem is that the average progressive system is doing nothing for the player, but it certainly is increasing the casino’s odds of beating you in the short term. 

If you don’t know how to ski, why go skiing down the biggest slope on your first run?  If you’ve never surfed, would you try the 40-year wave first (Even Swayze never came back)?  Blackjack is no different. If you don’t know how to play, why try and overcome this by using a progressive betting system that is likely destined to let you down much faster than simply playing normally.  

The best systems we have seen are systems that are long and drawn out, progressively raising your bet so subtly that it is hardly noticed.  These systems call for the players to win as low as 45% of the time, over thousands of hands. These progressive systems work because the player isn’t relying on any short-term miracles, say 1,000 hands or less.  We are working at incorporating betting systems in the next version of the Playing 21 Program, allowing you to use the ones we teach you, and incorporate it with your own.  

Start Here 

The Playing 21 Program has proven the exact odds of the game Blackjack, using any casino house rules. It breaks down each and every single way to play each starting hand that players can start with, allowing them to compare the different ways to play each hand, and seeing for themselves which is best.  It seems simple, and that is only because everyone before us mislead players. Oh sure, they showed you how to play, but much of it was mathematically incorrect. Math doesn’t lie, and Blackjack is mathematics. What the story is with each of those that came before us varies, but what is known the world over now is that playing Blackjack has changed forever. The Playing 21 Program has shown any player, who is serious about making money, how to play every single hand.  No more just taking someone’s misguided words as fact. We have made it very simple. 

We are believers in progressive systems that work.  Anything that raises the wager too quickly is doomed from the start. You cannot  ever win if you do not have sound physical resources.  Obviously, money is a must. Winners are those who are disciplined and understand that greed never plays a part in winning. Those who are happy to win anything, over losing anything, are the winners in the end.  

We also believe in a simple, mathematically logical game; Card Counting and Wager Variation; as proven in the Playing 21 Program’s Win/Loss Report.  Players who get pissed off when the casino wins their hard earned money are making another serious mistake by not book-marking this site right now. Spend some time over the next month reading through our website, and let us show you how much we despise what the casinos have done to innocent everyday players, just like you. 

Join our team.  In the long run, we can be winners together by making all of us the best possible Blackjack players history has ever seen. Be the best you can be, and learn from your mistakes, instead of letting the casinos continue to laugh at you each and every day when they make their bank deposits.
