I've done pretty well playing banker only with the d'Alembert betting system. If the minimum bet is $10 and maximum bet is $500, what is the odds hitting the maximum bet of $500 playing $10 / unit?

You must add 5% to every step, units cannot stay at $10. Maybe someone can work that out, but I'm thinking that the maximum would really have to be raised to have a real shot.

$40--->$2000 adding $20 per win.

$40-$40-$60-80-120-180-260-400-600-900-1300-2000 is 12-in-a-row
since your system raises every win the last 11 apply. Your rate of pressing is 43.6%, just lower than your chance of a win.

Then again, you want to bet $10 and press 50c... (sigh)
Some people need to reimagine their thinking.
