BEST GAMBLING SYSTEM.
The One That Will Surely Beat Faro
and Roulette.

The One That Will Surely Beat Faro
and Roulette.
Every confirmed gambler in the
world has spent more or less time try
ing to figure out some system to beat
the game" said well known northern
sporting man. THE commonest and
most plausible scheme is the one known
as progression 1t is simply a dou-
bling Of bets until winning occurs
and theoretically it is perfect, but the
trouble is that all gambling games
have a limit, and the doubling process
increases wager with such enormous
rapidity that it is apt to get over the
stipulated amount before the winning
takes place.
