Quote: boymimboMy point is that with the variance and the house edge, one can easily establish that they have a winning system because it can and does work for them over an appreciable sample size.
For example, if one plays craps for 400 hours in a year (which is fairly regular, 2x / week, 4 hour sessions) over a year, one can use a betting system and have a pretty good shot (>25%) of being ahead. This allows them to come on to a forum like this and claim to have a winning system, and in fact, for them, it might be a winning system, until the variance turns.
I wasn't saying that craps is winnable over infinite time. The fact is that we play over very finite periods of time, and "long term" at a casino represents a sample size where the casino can be beaten with "your" system that happens to work for you because you are experiencing a positive variance.
Craps is nothing like the three lotteries/slot machines you mentioned.
All of this is nonsense.

Math DOESN'T SUPPORT his claim. He CANNOT RELY ON HIS SYSTEM. I CAN RELY ON MY EDGE!
