We shall see ...
1. He follows the traditional math 95% of the time
So, that means it fails 5% of the time AND he promotes NEGATIVE expectations games that fail over time for all players. This is another example of the con. And, how some folks are so easily suckered. Just the fact he quotes expert play 95% of the time should tell you what's going on but it goes right over your head.
2. He has a win goal that he follows (a very important lesson for everyone)
Which has nothing whatsoever to do with long term success. The only way to win over time is to play positive expectation games correctly. Where does Singer state this? Win goals are basically only useful in negative games. So, instead of promoting positive games as a "best buy", you promote negative games with a method of losing less. Wow, what logic.
3. He sets a loss limit (a very important lesson for everyone)
Yup, only $57,500 for a SINGLE session. That would be an important life lesson for you Money. You should try it. All for the chance of winning maybe $2500. Sounds like a "best buy" to exactly whom?????
4. He has a unique method of using his bankroll to move up in denominations to attain a win which wipes out previous losses and to hit his win goal -- and this is what got my attention.
No, this is just lipstick on a pig. Anyone can play a negative progression (this type of play even has a name and has had many variations over the years). All Singer has done is tried to hide the fact this is nothing more than a Martingale derivative.

I would be not only happy to meet Dancer in Vegas and video tape his strategy plays, but I would be honored to have the opportunity.
