Is this type of betting really well-suited for "going for the big money"? What "big money" can the player go after when his betting scale reaches from $6 to $12 a race?
Or is it that you decided to go for the "big money" only later, when you increased your bets to $12-$24 dollars a race? But the increased wager amount couldn't have brought about the losing streak...unless you radically changed your playing method. And why would you change a playing method that had provided 5 consecutive years of profits for you?

The plan was to keep doubling up; 12 to 24 followed by 24 to 48 etc... I know your low wagers are much bigger than my big ones. So be it. I've always claimed to be a low-roller. Sometimes I even referred to myself as a mini-roller. It is what it is.
