I'd like to nominate this thread as a sticky for the Betting Systems forum. System-believers or the system-curious would be well served by these articles:

* Betting Systems and Why They Don't Work (Easy Vegas)

* The Truth About Betting Systems (Wizard of Odds)

I suggest the thread then be locked so that visitors can't help but see the very first post, rather than it getting lost among a gazillion pages of discussion.

Thanks for sharing these! So is the conclusion that you should bet the same units every time, or that it doesn't matter and you should change it up however you see fit? I'm talking about a trip to Vegas with roughly 30 hours of playing...

In conclusion, you shouldn't bet.

You will on average, tend to lose money in proportion to what you stake. Stake faster, lose faster.
But play in the way you enjoy.
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.
