Positive Progressions

We’ve talked about the Martingale betting system before; as we all know, the Martingale is a betting system based on negative progressions, where you increase the size of your bet after losing. In this article, we are going to take a look at positive progressions and the available variations.

Positive progressions betting system is also very easy to understand. Instead of raising your bet after a loss, you raise your bet after you win the previous one. You will gradually increase the stake and take advantage of your winning streak. If you lose a bet, you return back to the original stake.

With Paroli betting system, the amount of added stake is exactly double the amount of your original stake. Before you start, determine a certain number of progression you want to use; the safest number would be 3, since it is not difficult to win three bets in a row. Start by wagering one unit, and increase it to two units if you win. Continue to double the bet to four units if you also win the second bet. After the third bet, return back to 1 unit and redo the steps.

The betting system known as One Half Up is also based on positive progressions. If you start with £10 and you win the first bet, you are now at an even state. The next bet will still be £10, and if you win this one you will be at a +£10 state. You can now raise the bet by half of your lead, which means your next bet is £15.
