Re: "VdW"

But what help is it?

I mean, Nick gives this example
BBRBRBR is an AP of 3-5-7

But it was already 2-4-6

Its true, there will be at least 1 AP in 9, but it doesnt predict anything along the way

So what do we do?

R R bet red because it will be as VdW predicts
R we win! VdW was a genius
Wrong.

It was just a 50/50 bet and you got lucky.

There will never be a situation where we have 8 results and only one AP will work

It will be 2, and one is red and one is black

Its a magic trick.....sorry     

RRBBRRBB here are 8 with no AP

R gives 1-5-9
B gives 7-8-9

It's called a "shell game".  It's designed to exploit the foolish and ignorant.



The shell game (also known as Thimblerig, Three shells and a pea, the old army game) is portrayed as a gambling game, but in reality, when a wager for money is made, it is almost always a confidence trick used to perpetrate fraud.
