I try to make a distinction between whether my strategy is causing undo losses, or if the luck is just undue. I might have a few different strategies to try, but I would pick one to start and I could change my mind after a shoe to see how another one works.

You are playing a -EV game. It will be a -EV game however you plan to play it. What difference does it make?

You Lose, Lose Lose to fate. Fate owes you nothing for your changing direction or continuing the same course.
Beware. The earth is NOT flat. Hit and run is NOT a winning strategy: Pressing into trends is NOT a winning strategy: Progressive betting systems are NOT a winning strategy: Don't Buy It! .Don't even take it for free.

The difference is if your strategies utilize different money management systems. E.g.:

Strategy 1: Bet every hand, increase one unit per loss.

Strategy 2: Only bet once every three or four hands, flat betting.

Some players prefer consistently betting on the Banker hand because it has a slightly lower house edge than the Player hand. However, casinos usually charge a commission on Banker wins.
