The house limit is going to be the problem maybe with a simple doubling the bet system. Otherwise it is guaranteed to win. With a 2:1 payoff if you double the bet after each loss then your win when it comes will give you a profit equal to your initial bet. I haven't tried this in the real world though....

That is exactly why there are house limits.
Eventually the 6 or 8 losses in a row that it takes to hit the limit will happen and at that point you better damn well win the next bet or the party is over. Even if you do win the next bet all you do is break even.

Silly silly system.
As I said, it is far better to increase bets during a winning streak than a losing streak.
