VLS's Positive Tram Correction (PTC) -Small Bankroll Play
Positive Tram Correction is a concept I am studying heavily these days and it is one for sure to be incorporated into my play. The concept is simple: - YOU ONLY RISE YOUR BET WHEN YOU NEED IT. - YOU ONLY RISE YOUR BET AFTER WINNING, IN THE HOPE THAT A POSSITIVE TRAM WILL FIX (CORRECT) THE DEFICIT. Since it is inherent to small bankroll play, you can expect to have a losing sessions as well. There is the need to have a fair exit point when things are not coming your way and the whole small bankroll play framework holds around not letting a lose take larger amounts of units. ---------------- With a bankroll of 100 units, you can expect a 20% return. This is the chart of the last successful session I did: Also, at the losing sessions you usually have time to make a desicion of exit without losing it all. When it goes south, it goes! For instance, in this session: As I was never above my buy-in, and the tendency was obviously to get down, I stopped. --------------- Right now it is late and I must go out tomorrow in the morning. When I come back I'll do my best in explaining the betting locations (2 dozens + 2 columns) PLUS some options I have tried before I sticked to the one being used as of today. At some sessions it gets boooring since you neither go up nor definitely down. BUT better to lose time slowly than loads of money quickly! :) --------------- Positive Tram Correction IS GOOD for small bankroll play. I have been toying with this for some time now and I'm ready to publish what I have so hopefully we will all get benefit out of it. Oh! And please notice it is Positive Tram, so a lose or two can be taken in between the wins when aiming for the Correction. Best regards, Victor. -Very willing to share!

Like I said, this is a 4-location playing: 2 Columns + 2 Dozens Selection criteria I have used in my -*test*-('")ing: - Double Jump: Meaning both the dozen and the column are different from previous spin. (They both "Jumped" from the dozen/column). - Double Stay: Meaning both the dozen and the column got a it at ANY of the last two dozens. ============ When playing these 4 locations, you can have the possible outcomes: Win +2 units by a hit on a covered column + a covered dozen (double hit). Lose -1 unit by a hit on only 1 location. Lose -4 by zero or a miss on both. ============ The gaming uses Virtual Play a lot, and to some extent human factor (a few). I like to enter after a win. A positive tram starts with a win. After a lose = Virtual Play. ============ So the basic play I did was this: - Start in virtual play mode. - After a double-jump, enter betting for the CONTINUATION of the double jump event. On a lose = Back to Virtual Play. - After a double-stay, enter betting last two dozens + last two columns. On a lose = Back to virtual play. Usually it gets to win little and lose little, except for the -4 loss. Most common in my -*test*-('")ing is to fall slowly by -1's. When to rise? Simple: when you are below you previous highest amount and have got a DOUBLE hit (a win on both a dozen and a column). Only raising +1 per successful double-hit. Decrementing -1 on a single location hit, and making a FULL reset after a loss at the 4 locations. More to come, including a -*test*-('") with actuals & graphs. Yes. PTC has made some nice upward-trending charts...

Hi Victor, I'm so fascinated by your "Small Bankroll Play." This: "(2 dozens + 2 columns)" I have always, when playing this, separated the events. This is what I fall back to grind away at. But you have combined them for an interesting system. I will have to spend a lot of time on what you are doing with this. I have a version of this that focuses just on one group, 2 dozens or 2 columns at a time. I'm now finding that the bankroll can even go lower when focusing on when it is good to be on just 1 dozen at a time. So you play the 2 dozens while they are doing upward growth and you switch to the other one dozen when the two dozens trend downward. What I used to do is just bet on another 2 dozens. This way I have less on the table and when it does win it pays twice as much. So I'm going to spend all my free time on your system for a small bankroll and my guessing system with 2 dozens or 1 dozen play. The real thing that is cool about this method is that if it does well it shows the control to limit losses. If you were to perfect it then raising the unit level would show some real promise. Mark

Everything comes in waves dear friend. Positive Tram Correction is a CONCEPT, not only to be applied to dozens/columns, but also with plenty of other things. The negative tram can go on as much as it wish. The gist of small-bankroll play is to take the loss and halt the session in order to protect from total disaster. I see the concentration and dispersion of the events very real. At the PTC framework, it is no use to keep rising the unit at the negative tram, the moment to rise is after a win; after losing you have to regress the laying! ---------- I have a version of this that focuses just on one group, 2 dozens or 2 columns at a time.

This is in the brainstorming session for a reason: TO FIND THE BEST WAY TO USE THE POSITIVE TRAM CORRECTION CONCEPT. Whether it is with 1 location or two, I have seen the pretty charts. Sometimes a couple positive spin correct a load of misses. I have gotten graphics like this one: Also some others are quite a rollercoaster...

Hey Victor/gizmotron , Isak had a system pretty similar using the EC's http://www.freeadultstuff.us/gamble/302systems/MAGIC.pdf
