Just received an email from one of my star students, a nice gentleman from Australia.
He has been a student for about six months and I had heard from him several times in the past, but this email was special to me and it could be for you too.
As you will soon learn, Hal has taken my training program very seriously and took me at my word when I told him that, although not everyone may have the desire or temperament to make playing a full-time business, my program can make it possible.
I have pasted his email below and it is word for word.
I am making of point of telling you that because if my main motivation for sharing his letter were to sell you something, I would have deleted all the places where he states clearly that (I love his expression)…”this is a hard way to make an easy living.”
I make it a point to every prospective student I talk with on our first call to tell them that my system is NOT easy to learn or play. The last thing I want is a new student mad at me because they soon discover that my lessons require much more time, effort and practice than any system they have ever purchased before. It can take several weeks or longer to learn and then practice and more practice until they are ready to go live in the casino.
However, let me ask you this…is there any other business or profession that you can do which does not require a good amount of time, study and practice?
Most ALL other system sellers will tell you the opposite. When they tell you that their system is not only a winner but very easy to learn (my favorite is the guy from Vegas who tells prospects that he can teach it to them in the time it would take to drink a cup of coffee!) they are half right. It IS easy to learn but it is not profitable long term.
Does that sound reasonable? Has it been you experience in life that you can expect to be truly successful without “paying your dues” in terms of time and education?
I put a lot of time and effort into getting my doctor’s degree…but guess what? I have put at least twice as much time effort, testing, losing at the tables, buying everyone else’s crap and researching to come up with a real winning system.
To be safe and modest, I have always told those considering my training that, in most shoes, more than any other system I have ever seen or heard about, my system will win simply flat betting.
I have been surprised more than once to learn that not everyone understands the term FLAT BETTING, so here it is once again. Flat betting means that you make EVERY bet the same amount.
Being able to win flat betting has ALWAYS bet the “Holy Grail” for gamblers.
Well, I am still not going to claim that my system is that good but I may have to reconsider in light of what Hal has been doing on a regular basis.

Thanks for the update Dr Tom.
I have found the normal program to work well with dominant shoes a lot of the time dependent on the pattern you hit in that shoe. Then again other shoe are just terrible. I’ve noticed that once one side is double the other side or more then you can expect trouble. I tried your update on a few losing dominant shoes and the results ended up positive rather than negative. I am usually only looking for 4 units a shoe.
Other feedback FYI.
- Using column 3 only adds more safety and confidence to your betting.
- The virtual bets are so important after 2 losses in a row. Some shoes I have had 1 virtual bet followed by a loss, then 2 virtual bets followed by a loss, then 3 virtual bets before things have turned around, and in a lot of cases been followed by 6-8 plus or minuses or more in a row. Always a good feeling and rewards the persistence of patience and discipline.
- The longer the shoe goes e.g. over 30 bets, then the focus and concentration are most important. I have stated to you before that nearly all shoes I have lost have been due to user error and not the system or the ‘bad’ shoe.
- Speed is so important as outlined by yourself as a key factor as the mistakes as outlined in 3 above are usually due to pressure of the moment and lack of speed. I am consistently 15-20 seconds. The ties give me a break.
- I still only use the original single dot to indicate the W/L column, but that is what works for me.
- The ++- or –+ at the beginning of the shoe I find works well and is always worth the effort.
- Getting the Direction changes correct in columns 2 & 3 are critical to success and once again this is where pressure of the situation and poor speed will give a poor result. User error.
- When the 3rd column minuses start coming, I feel your betting confidence increases, and I feel confident of a good win. Pluses also apply, but I must admit I like my minuses when they come.
- Thomas I flat bet nearly always, sometimes to the annoyance of my colleagues, but it seems to work for me as I am only looking for 4 units (Black) per shoe. I play 6 days a week, and at least 3 shoes per day. I am happy with 10 units per day, and this occurs most days. Maybe I could win more, but I am happy with the risk management. This is a serious business.
- This is a hard way to make an easy living. This is the best system I have come across, and yes it is very hard work to implement properly and successfully, but the rewards are there to this time. You have to love what you do. The system is a credit to you Dr Tom.
- The best US$1000 I ever invested.
Hope this feedback is of help to you.
Regards,
Hal
