To be honest, I've never used a Chase system, but I am curious to hear opinions on something from those that do or have followed someone that has.

First, some don't even know what it is, and just to make them aware, a chase system begins when a bettor wagers on 1 play, and if it does not win, they move on to the next play and increase their wager size, and so on until they win and/or profit. Some use different styles, and I cannot say which are more successful, if any, long term.

Anyhow, my question pertains to the types of plays a player uses when following this system.

I've noticed that most use sides when using their chase system.

If one side loses and the bettor moves on to the 2nd play, the third play, and so on, considering they are sides, it seems as if you are still basically getting approximately 50-50 odds on the next play hitting, despite the small advantage you get with handicapping the games.

Would it be more of an advantage to use totals, and begin with an under or over, then if it loses, move on to the 2nd play, and so on, while continuing to stick with the under or over, knowing that 1 of the games are more than likely to finish that way? Just seems to me that it would boost our % of hitting the 2nd play or so on compared to a side.

Thanks for your answers....(<)<

ONLY take sides and take underdogs of greater than +10.

I can PROMISE you that you would not lose more than 3 or 4 in a row. And you may win 3 or 4 in a row. Heck, start tonight and take one of +18 games.

I would be cautious to present any info on chase systems period. Chase systems will break you...completely....you might have a success for a while but finally you will get to the point of no return...

Do not use chase systems in any form.

Presenting info on this will only encourage people to try it. Stick with betting for fun people...with income that is disposable.

Encouraging people to do this is very irresponsible.

You can PROMISE po? Why don't you just do it then? Start at 500 a play...if you promise...then you can make 500 a day in basketball?

Anyone with half a brain knows this is a way to go completely busted.

please dont encourage people to use this crap, it only can end badly.

use some common sense, why would anyone want to bet multiple units on a random play? what could make one play worth 2, 4, or 8 times more valuable than any other?

I didnt say that someone would make $500 a day at all. I am already betting more than that.


I just said that I didnt think that someone would lose more than 4 in a row by taking huge underdogs. Now of course, if they initially started with $500, then on the 4th day they are betting $4000 or so just to get their stake back plus a little cash. I did not say $500 win per day. Of course some days they will lose.


I dont use the chase system at all. But that is what I would do if I did it

Whale, I agree with most of what you say, but I have no intentions on using, nor do most of us I imagine. I'm not sure how I am encouraging people with a simple question directed to those that use them.?

However, there are those that do, and I've seen some success from some with them, but I will admit, have not followed those bettors enough because I had no interest in the system or playing that style.

For those that do though, I was just thinking that when the player moves on to the next play after losing the previous play or plays, that picking sides is stil basically picking Team A Or Team B, and no matter how well you cap a game, you still could just continue to pick the wrong side. With sides, in NBA for example, you know that the odds are a little bit better that if you begin by wagering the under on a game in the beginning, and if it loses, by continuing to place unders to follow, that one of those games are more likely to finish under compared to just picking A or B team on sides....

Hache,

I can talk about this subject for hours but as already posted it is not the most desirable way of betting.

For 1 I do use totals. I have always felt they are the most desirable for using any kind of system. That may be just because I have always tended to be a totals bettor anyways..

Chase systems are something that I have spent 100's of hours working on and have computer programs that now give me the plays.

I learned the hard way to stay the hell away from anything that does not give + odds.

Chasing is not something that ANYONE should do without knowing exactly what they are in for with a losing stretch.

I have played a dog chase in baseball, only playing on teams that will be dogs for an entire series. I have other filters to limit the plays and am just looking for the dog to win one game in a 3 or 4 game series. If the series ends with a sweep, I chalk it up as a loss and move on to the next group of series. With a 3 game series, the most you can lose is 7 units (1,2,4 unit progression).

I have used this for the last 4 years and ended up 50,20,35 units the first 3 years, last year ended at -10 units.

Ridiculous. Most people don't have enough money in their accts to even attempt chasing bets. I can see some college kid seeing this and losing his ass before he knew what hit him. All it takes is one losing streak of 6 or 7 to bury someone.

you guys are too funny, so short sighted, yes I am coming in here to offer a differing opinion,,,

There are many setups that do work, there are reasonable progressions that win year after year,,, some fall out of favor, some fall into favor,

The fact that the majority can come into this thread and not explore the potential (albeit limited) success is pathetic, and short sighted,,,

shame shame,,,

Just because many of you think they dont work, well guess what, Many people on the boards cant win betting straight either??? WTF??? lol,,

Many on the boards have ZEROOO concept on scalping too,, even if they did, they would lose there too,,

many on the boards have ZEROOO concept on Middleing?? even if they did, they would lose there too.

so WTF?? lol,,,

it is so easy to criticize, Hache for just makeing a suggestion, or posing a simple question?? then OFFER No reasonable retort,,, its to those people that ruin the boards. Its to those people that hurt capping altogethar,,

Losers,,, :ohno:

scalping aint shit but a way to make lunch money...ur talking to guys on here that average 20 or so a play...what are they gonna make as scalpers?

Be realistic...

You gonna tell a guy to send 5 dimes to 10 different books so they can scalp their way to 50 bucks a day? Then when one of their books close their doors or tie up their funds for 2 months before they get a check....

Go talk that shit to some dummy on the street...cuz I aint it

You so smart tater? You lay it out how these young guys can win then....lay it all out there and show us how...cuz I sure as fuck wanna know just like they do...but mark this down...chase systems will break ur ass...all of them

Let me explain this really clear and if you have any doubts, go look this info up... its at covers if you want to see it...


When a NBA or MLB team, plays 5 (and only 5) straight Overs or Unders..

Start fading that streak in game 6..... Chase it a MAX of 6 times or until you get a win....

in other words, it takes an 11 game Over or Under streak to beat you... This is a Money Maker, guaranteed.... If you doubt it, just look it up..

now thank me later..
