Tricks and Tips for those Games of Chance and Rare Skill – Poker, Blackjack, etc.

As even Derren Brown, the stage “hypnotist” who regularly shocks and scares his audience in the UK with just how much he knows about his subjects from as little as apparently touching their hand, or just how willing he can make his subjects be to rob Securicor vans, has just failed to correctly predict where [...]

Recently, many web sites have popped up advertising a new system on how to win roulette, blackjack or poker, etc. every time. The system roughly goes like this:
Bet $1. If you win, well done. If you lose, bet $2. If you win, well done. If you lose, bet $4 – and keep doubling until you [...]
