The D'Alembert System is a progression
betting system that can be used for any even money bets, i.e. black/red on
roulette. The D'Alembert system is much
less volatile than the martingale and other
more aggressive progression systems.
While it is slower in recovering from losses and building winnings, it is still true to the general progression betting approach in that you can still come out ahead without winning more than 50% by changing bet sizes. The real
advantage to the D'Alembert is that the player can sustain a much longer string of losses
before losing his session bankroll and there is little risk of hitting the table limits.
The D'Alembert system works like this, after each loss you increase your bet by 1 unit and
after each loss decrease your bet by 1 unit. As an example, if you are at a table that allows
$1 split bets on roulette, you would make your first bet $10. If you lost your first bet then your
next bet would be $11. If you won your first bet then your next bet would be $9. If you hit
zero, then you should end your session or start again at the initial bet. The size of the initial
bet is up to your own gambling style but you should make it at least 6X the minimum bet. So
for a $5 minimum, you make the first bet at least $30.
