Haven't you guys seen the movie "In America"? It worked fine there!

Anyway, just this Friday night, some people were telling me that you should employ a strategy similar to this, but not as extreme -- simply that you should raise your bet after losing, and lower it after winning. They said it was based on "regression to the mean" which sounded to me like a fancy way of trying to assert that the events weren't independent.
