Piquemouche Method is based on the large martingale, it follows the principle from there but more prudently. Indeed, each term of the progression of the large martingale will be played 3 times. Example: Let us suppose, that the setting minimum is $1. You start with miser $1 on a simple chance. If you lose, you double your setting only all the 3 losses. Which gives the following martingale: 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 8, 8, 8, 16, 16, 16, 32, 32, 32, 64, 64, 64... One can thus go much further that with the large martingale since the ceiling of the settings will be reached only after 27 blows and not 9 only for the large martingale. However, only one win will not be enough to return to us profit. In order to benefit, it will be necessary to parlay the win. As a result, one finds oneself with a profit of an amount which will vary according to the place where one is in the progression.
