You state in your system that when you eventually hit the number "You win back all you lost... plus your profit!" What makes you say that? That isn't true at all. Here's the math: http://www.bibucks.com/bullshit1.htm
(I've ignored the side bets, because they just complicate the math and as you say "The $17.00 side bets are just fluff to help with your bank roll... it's the straigt up hit that does it for you...")

As you can see by the math, if you don't hit your number by about turn 65 you have lost money that you can't win back on just one hit. So if you hit it before 65 you are ahead, hit it after and you've lost. Gee, I guess that why they call it gambling, because even with your system it's, well, a gamble.
If you go through 65 turns and you hit on say 70. You would have $66 dollars on that number by adding $1 dollar to it every turn after 7 turns. So you would have won $2310 dollars after hitting on 70. You would have spent $966 dollars up until turn 70. Total profit of $1344 dollars. This is only with 35-1 odds, not the side odds which will increase it.
