Re: Basics - that no one wants to hear

One thing that changed my direction was after a few chats with Number Six and with Iggiv.

The subject was that of personal permanence

Its very hard to imagine, but when you imagine it correctly, it makes a difference to how you play.

With personal permanence, you can only consider numbers that show when you have wagered on the carpet. So, you cant use marque numbers, or numbers that occurred when you take a break or are not at a roulette wheel ("a" roulette wheel, not THE roulette wheel)

People tend to think that normal distribution is in groups of numbers serially touching each other....like on a marque. But random numbers dont touch each other. They are totally independent and any 37 numbers from 37 roulette wheels will follow normal distribution.

Its this thinking that a group of sequential numbers from 1 wheel is what displays ND, and that way only, which leads to illusions.

Illusions like tracking back to get a set of numbers, virtual spins, using past spins from the marque.

Betting ideas apart, this way of looking at random numbers frees you from illusions.

IMO
