Off Shots of Labouchere (Cont.)


Predetermine what value you want to play (based on your Session money), set your Win Goal and Loss Limit, decide on your maximum outlay for that system, figure out how many chips you need and buy in. Be sure you have this all set beforehand.

The amount of the buy in could be several factors for this system. If you have a $300 Bankroll, then $100 is your Session amount. Set your maximum bet at 8 units and use dollar chips. You're easily within 10 times the amount of your maximum unit outlay.

If your Bankroll is $1000, you can split it into five Sessions of $200 each, set your maximum at 10 units, and get $2 chips. This means you have 10 times the amount of your maximum unit outlay.

And don't be afraid to set the chip value based on your Session money. You could make the chips $1, $2, $3, $5, $8, $10, or whatever you choose.

Frank Lees Kared is a chicken in the casino. Frankly, he's scared of the dealers, the noise, the people, even the cocktail waitresses (is he nuts?), the people, everything. At work he's a big tough 280 pound longshoreman, but turns to jelly at a table.
He works out all kinds of systems at home, but in the casino he clams up and is afraid to make any moves that will draw attention to himself   as if you could hide a 6 ft. 5 inch, 280 pound body. But that's the way it is and, frankly, he ends up losing because he doesn't follow his betting methods and systems.

Don't you fall into the same stupid pattern. Know how you're gonna bet and tell the dealer exactly what you want in the way of value on your chips.

Frank Lees Kared would do well to just act himself at the tables. Nobody's going to yell at you and most of all, get this through your thick noodle: You're dealing with money yours. So treat it like money and play intelligently.

I'm trying to make a simple point with this system. There are plenty of variations at your fingertips and those off shoots multiply with the proper handling of your chip value.

Hope you're still with us.
