Grass roots in the toilet

Hi,

So I had been playing grass roots on paper in various ways. One
way I played, if you remember, was with a computer generated
list to play against.  Somehow picking a sequence (like 1-2-3)
and using that and playing 1,3,9 seemed to make the most sense.

I played and practiced the random thing. And hit a loss after, like, 4 wins.
I reported that and as usual RG crawled up my ass telling me about longer term,
this and that.  Which is why I use my wallpaper test. Weeds out most of the
crap.

So I tried again on paper and did better. And to be honest, picking 1,2,3 and also
having the randomness of entry within a group of 3 doesn't seem that stupid.

So I'm heavy in cash right now and just decided to go for it. I brough money,
my paper and pen. And played. Against 1,2,3. I won two groups (of 3. Play for one
win in the group of 3). And like clockwork lost the 1,3,9 on the 3rd group.
So I lost $120 at a $5 table.

Guess I got closure on THAT idea. (I WOULD have won my 4th bet).........

And as I tracked and watched and played again all I could thing was that, while
it may be unusual (you be the judge of "unusual" with 2 triple hit losses in
two consecutive sessions), but there ALWAYS seem to be "losses" in the trifecta
of attempts, while searching for the single win every 3 spins.

And I'm wondering, "why not play them"? Seems odd that it could be so easy to
consistently pick the 2-1 and miss the 1-2.
