Twice in the past four years I've lost NINE in a row. Once over two days, another was a series of nine plays on a busy Saturday.
Of course I could have written them down in different order...but the idea of "Even flipping a coin 50/50, you can't lose nine in a row" is of course whack.
But the best ever was a college basketball weekend two years ago when I carefully selected 12 games and put them in 4 3team parlays.
All 12 lost.
I sent a note to the offshore and asked if I could get a consolation prize, since the odds of 12 for 12 are just over 5000/1.
Most wins in a row is 11...again a selection of plays covering two different days.

(PRWEB) December 15, 2004 -- In the world of gambling one of the earliest documented gambling professionals is probably Charles de'ville, who in the early 1890's successfully used a gambling strategy called "The Martingale".
In theory, this gambling system can't fail to make a profit and involves gambling on the "even money" chances at casino games such as roulette and blackjack...
With this gambling system, each time you place a bet on an even-money chance. If you win, you double your money. If you lose, you simply double your stake next time and so on until you gain a win.
The plus side to this gambling strategy is that with deep pockets, you can theoretically win all of the time as it would be an impossibility for a Casino Roulette table to fall on say "Red" all night.
The down side to this gambling strategy is that your stakes accumulate quickly when a losing run develops. As you can work out, a losing run of six will cost 63 units in the pursuit of a one-unit gain. However, the probability of this happening is 64 to one.
If your lucks in, and over short periods of gambling, you can certainly win with this old gambling strategy (or a big loss!)
The James Green Story:
5 years ago bookie assistant James Green stumbled across a math-formula that changed his life instantly. Overnight all what he had learned and worked for at the bookie was put on hold - and instead James decided to become a professional gambler, even thou he always preached “the player never wins in the end”!
What did the math-formula show James?
The original formula which he found proved to James that it indeed was possible to ”rob” the bookies and sports books legally and beat them at their own games making guaranteed profits betting on sports such as football and basketball!
From a promising job as a sports-book assistant with a good pay he quit his job, cashed in his last paycheck and his savings to modify the formula he had found and to pursue a life as a professional gambler…
it all worked in theory but would it hold up in real life testing? Would his so-called guaranteed winning sports betting system make him go bust or actually work…
Like most Hollywood movies I can tell you this man’s journey to become a professional gambler and legend comes with a guaranteed happy ending!
James Green made millions in guaranteed profits betting on sports offline. Because as he states; ”When I left my job all I knew about was how real bookies and their ”shop” worked. Now with the information-highway anyone can do what I did just in half the time and make a living betting on sports - They can even sit from home and use the computer to do it.

What if life of the sport data showed that no team had covered, not covered, went over, or went under for more than 8 straight times? Then you see the Game 6 pop-up. Is this edge worth a play for a couple wagers for 1 unit flat and maybe a 2 unit next game. Stop there if no win, but you had an angle play that looked strong.
