    Strategy based on previous hands won or lost

    I remember a strategy based on previous hands, won or lost but I am unable to find references.

    And yes, I know it's a poor strategy. Not my question.

    Believe this to be accurate, but don't guarantee it to be so.

    Years ago, Don wrote something about a ramp system designed to keep you welcome. Unquestionably, the gambit was designed for black chip players, since the gambit simply has to low a dollar win rate for anything smaller.

    Pretty simple really. Min is 1 chip to plus 2. Raise 1 chip for each true count increase until plus 5. Then 2x6 chips. Don't lower or increase deoending in win lose. Will average 1-1.5 chips per hour.

    Not sure Don had access to modern software when he developed hat. Of course, he can confirm the above as accurate or inaccurate.

    Inaccurate. I don't remember anything like that.

    I think that came from one of Ian Anderson's books. Been many years since I read them, so not certain.

    Different edition. Just look for the part about shuffles and results based on previous hands in the Fine Points chapter.

    I know I saw it somewhere - would be interesting to research, which I might do when I get home.
