Do you use a negative (up as you lose), flat (same unit size) or positive (up as you win) betting strategy ???

[wolfat]

I adopt old Norm's MM.

FLAT till in plus, then 1,2 till in positive, or 1, 1.5

[avion]

I use all three.  Using a 1-2 up when I lose the 1 unit bet on low disparity, flat betting 1 on high disparity, then with a win flat betting, go to 2, and then 1-2 loop, till I lose a bet, and back to 1 and then to determine hi or low disparity betting.  

Really wish I had known Norm.  Everything I read that he wrote, it just really speaks to me.

I am a unabashed believer in negative progressions. Particularly the u1d1.

I believe there is no single answer to this

Í mostly flat bet, but as a S40M1 (TB4L) player there are times when it is prudent to chip up.

Avion's last post sums it up beautifully

flat bet to test the water

look for opportunities where you know you are highly likely to win the bet BUT if you don't you are damn near guaranteed to win the one after that (1,2 up as you lose)

or

you believe you are highly likely to win the next bet AND the one after that (1,2 up as you win)

or

you just cant lose more than 1 bet in a row (1,2 loop)
