There are several schools of thought regarding progressive betting-automatic increases in the size of the wager after winning a hand. Many experts, especially those that are card counters, feel that a "flat" bet (the same amount on every hand) should be wagered until the point count favors the player, at which time the bet should be increased from two to ten times the original amount.

Other experts suggest that basic strategy players should only increase their wagers for three or four consecutive winning hands, since the odds of winning a large number of consecutive hands are slim.

Still other experts recommend using a regressive progressive system which instructs the player to reduce his first winning wager by one half, and then increase the bet by one unit after each consecutive winning hand. This system allows the player a profit if he wins the first hand and loses the second hand.

Fault: The player's overall profit is reduced if he wins consecutive hands.

Another type of system, proposed by Donald Dahl and others instructs the player to increase his bets as he is winning, and return to the original unit bet only when he loses. The suggested betting progressions vary, but might be like this (all winning wagers):

$5, $5, $10, $10, $15, $15, etc.

$5, $7, $9, $11, $15, $20, etc.

$10, $15, $20, $25, $30, etc.

If at any time a split or double-down hand is won, the player is instructed to "Jump" one level, because he won at least twice as much at the previous level. In the event of a loss, the bet reverts to the one-unit level. No change occurs with a push hand.

The obvious advantage of this system is that the player wins ever- increasing amounts when he is on a winning streak, and loses only the minimum wager while on a losing streak. Also, the system is simple to follow and requires no mathematical skill; simply add one or two units to each winning hand, and revert to the original unit bet after a loss.

Another advantage is that the player is often using "house money"(cash he didn't have when he entered the casino) to risk on winning additional profits. One or two extended streaks of winning hands can be very profitable, and can quickly offset a series of losing streaks where only the minimal bets were lost.
