I did a test on Florida since that's Pac's home state.
In 2005-2006, you would have made - using a progression - $8800, but you would have needed an $8500 bankroll since the lows at one time went 7 straight, meaning you would have had to apply the following betting strategy after the 4th consecutive:
Draw
Bet
Unit
If Loss
If Win
1
$500.00
1
($500.00)
$400.00
2
$1,000.00
2
($1,500.00)
$300.00
3
$2,000.00
4
($3,500.00)
$100.00
4
$4,500.00
9
($8,000.00)
$100.00
5
$10,500.00
21
($18,500.00)
$400.00
Not too bad I guess, however, it would probably be advised to wait until there were 5 consecutives. Not as many chances to win, but in Florida, you would have only had to risk $3500 to get your profits. And there were plenty of chances to win starting with the 6th draw.

I extensively studied the original Pac system. Are you telling me that you would play when the numbers were either 000-499 or 500-999 for FOUR consecutive draws? Mid-to-mid, or eve-to-eve? Then you bet? That is how I interpreted your play.
As for the progressive wagering, I have been preaching that on this board since I've been a member. It's really the only way to go in the event you get a losing streak. What's the point in winning a drawing and still being in the hole? That's when I came to realize progressions are the best betting strategy.
Think about it....you would play the same 2 numbers and only play $2 a draw. Not unreasonable. But, suppose those two numbers stayed out for 455 draws and then it hit (online betting of course). So, you have stayed the course and spent $910 to win $10. Seems kind of silly, doesn't it.
Therefore, progressions have to be implemented. Good work.
CPS10, I think Pac already responded, but I should have clarified in my original post.
I wait until i see 6 consecutive draws with all low or high first digit numbers.
Example 778,555,989,567,832,567 then I play all 500 low numbers 000 ,001 ---- 498 ,499.
Don't mix and match evening -to midday, I only play when all 6 consecutive midday or all six
consecutive evening have 6 straight high or lows. Then I bet $500 on all highs or all lows.
If I don't hit the first time I bet at 6 consecutive, then I double up the next day. I have only had
to do this once. But I have only been playing with real money for 2-1/2 weeks. That doesn't
mean it'll never happen ,but it has happen only once so far.
The only nerve wrenching deal, is when Illinois went 7 days I had $500. out already. Then to
recover I had another $1000.00 out the next day. Won $1800.00 but I had $1500. invested.
But a $300 recovery is better than just walking away from a $500 loss.
Re the skips I have not looked into a massive amount of history. But I know(believe) the computer
draws are trouble for this method. I tossed my back up work but i think it was AZ, and Ks, that
had 10 straight either high or lows and the other state had 8 or 9 . These are big time trouble
with this method unless you have as Pac stated a starting bankroll of $5-K .

CSP10,
Don't get me wrong , I'm not saying this method is for everyone. The fun thing is your not dealing
with one state for a year at a time , your dealing on a day to day basis, with all non-computer
states across the country.
Example yesterday . Tn midday 6 highs went low won $900. ,,, Oh Eve 6 highs went low won
$900. Ill eve. 7High went low won $1800. but had to lay out $1500. Kt 6 Low ,went high won
$900.
Don't get me wrong I was sweating bullets at least until the Tn midday came in. But the method
seems to work. I just don't want to see any 10 straights from CT.

It seems pretty sound to me. I agree with you in moving it to 6 consecutives. I might even be inclined to move it to 7, but 6 seems okay. If the highest out is 9, then you are only pressing to a 4th bet...which isn't terrible.
I think the method is good nonetheless. When you cut it in 4th ($0.25 / bet), then you only need $2000 on a bet like I suggest here. Granted, you only win $25, but that's better than being out! :)
