I got my mate into trouble, I jokingly said 'why not just bet £1 on black, if it loses double your bet, then when you win again just go back to £1 and do it again'....I just meant it as a joke since if you double your bet each time it can become ridiculous very quick. Well he wasn't as clever as I thought and emptied his bank account, but we were students so it was about £100...
i did this a few years back now in las Vegas. doubled up every time and i had to stop as i ran out of chips and spent what i budgeted for that day. a bet on black 8 times in a row and it was red!
have been back
