Someone told me it was close to the Martingle method. But when I play games like Blackjack, Dice and Roulette.  I use the strategies

X's 1, X's 1, X's 2, X's 2, X's 4, X's 6, X's 10
Play it until you loose.
So if your first bet is $10 it would be:
10,10,20,20,40,60,100

I have recently start changing it though to:
10,15,20,30,60,100 it gets you to the 10s 10 bet quicker but if you catch a BJ the first 3 hands then if you loose you are up 20-40 dollars!
