@buzzpath: maybe next year coin-flip-martingale? Double on the coins until I double my money? Or tripple it?

Didn't the coins lose two additional games this week? I wouldn't want the results of your experiment to be skewed.

See I knew the coin was due. Heading to the Roulette table because Black is due. Watch out everybody, here comes a WINNER !
Shame you used a virtual coin... If you used a real coin, you could have sold it at season end if it was over 55% (or under 45%). Enjoy reading this anyways and see how it goes!
