The Little 3 is:

1. Theory
2. Logic
3. Trends

THEORY: Everyone who gambles should have an idea of what each gambling day will encompass. For instance, in Roulette will you play conservative or ag¬gressive? Surely you must have opinions as to how you should play. That opinion is called "theory." It is how you feel that particular game should be played, what systems offer you the least chance of losing, and what is the strongest money management method you can use. Jake Dajerc is a typical gambler. He bets for the sheer enjoyment of dropping money on the table and taking his best shot. Jake doesn't approach any game with even the slightest bit of a game plan. The only thing he can give you an opinion on is the cocktail waitress' legs and he'd probably foul that up too. My "theory" on how to approach gambling is very conservative. But I believe that is the only way you can win at gambling.

Maybe you'll like my "theory" or maybe you'll come up with your own! Good!!! I want you to do this. But you can't have a "theory" about something unless you know every single solitary facet of the game. Otherwise, who gives a rat's tail what your unproven opinion might be. "Theory" will be expanded on later, but keep it in the back of your mind.

LOGIC: Anything to do with gambling has a logical explanation. In blackjack is it logical to split two fours vs. the dealers' queen? Of course not   that's a stupid move and has no right being done. Is it logical in craps to bet on the don't pass when you are the shooter? Of course not, only an illogical approach to playing craps could cause a person to do it.

I'm going to give you an intelligent, 'logical'way to handle your Bankroll, play roulette, manage your money, and, most of all, how to logically use Discipline.
Maybe you won't like this logical approach, but it'll sure do wonders for your game and reduce your chances of losing.

TRENDS: Last, but surely not least, we have trends. Since it is so dominant a necessity, the whole next chapter is directed to it.

There you have the Little 3. As we progress through these pages, I hope you come up with a logical theory on how to handle Trends. It's all in the money management section, but start putting your own ideas together.
