It is called the Martingale.

One of the dealers told me about it, and that is how he plays. You need a big bank roll to do it, but apparently it works for him.

It is one of the reasons there is a 'max. bet' I guess. Here are some of the other 'systems' that some play, or have tried, in regards to progressive betting.

There ya go exactly. Martingale. I read a book somewhere. This was years ago and I thought NOONE around here knows about this.

But yeah in Blackjack a variation could be successful but yes you would need a bankroll and of course the odds of a disastrous night losing 15 in a row hang over your head. That method has almost guaranteed small results for a few nights but you have to put a money bag on the other side of the odds teeter-totter every night.
