The 1-3-2-6 System is positive progression system in both gambling and in money management betting systems and is therefore similar to the Paroli System; the difference being that this betting system is based on the premise that you can win four times in a row.
In playing or betting with this particular system, your first wager is 1 unit (1), your second wager is 3 units (3), your third wager is 2 units (2), and your fourth wager is 6 units (6); hence, the origin of the name of this strategy: 1-3-2-6.
You can make a ‘unit’ anything you like and that’s why this betting system is very suitable to any pocket. If you don’t have much money available, you can bet $1 as a ‘unit’ or if you have more money, you can bet $100 as a ‘unit’; the unit is flexible to your pocket as a player and the only constraints are the limits if the casino itself; whether you’re gambling online or at any brick and mortar casino. Of course, as the name goes, the 1-3-2-6 system requires that a player holds exactly to the 1-3-2-6 formula in order to increase their chances of winning.
Here’s an example:
You decide that $10 is going to be your personal ‘unit’;
You FIRST bet $10 first, following the system exactly;
If you win, you’ll come into your little fortune of $20 (smile);
Your SECOND bet - you follow the system exactly and bet 3x$10 which means you’ll need to have $30 on the table – since you already have $20, add only $10 on the table making the second bet $30;
If you win again on the second bet, there would be $60 on the table;
Your THIRD bet – Your third bet will follow the system exactly and you’ll need to have 2x$10 ($20) on the table. This means of course that you’ll need to take away $40 from the table.
If your third bet wins, you will now have $80 on the table;
Your FOURTH bet - Your fourth bet will follow the system exactly and you’ll need to have 6x$10 ($60) on the table. That means that you’ll need to take away $20 and leave $60 on the table for the fourth bet.
If the fourth bet wins, there would be a total of $120 on the table, all of which is net profit.
At the end of the fourth bet, you must take the bet down and start the system all over again with $10.
Remember that if you lose at any time and at any level, you must start all over again at $10.
The attraction of this system is that you risk little at a chance of making a larger net profit. This means you can lose six times at the worst level (second bet), and with one win (four in a row/complete cycle) you will win your money back.
The 1-3-2-6 System works best with games that have near even odds. We would strongly recommend that you practice to be perfect – a lot of online casinos offer free play and you can practice alone to increase your skill level before risking any real money using any gambling system.
