(I Orginally Posted this idea at Gamblers Glen)
My latest novel idea is a 3D labouchere. The appeal here is only for those who buy in to my notion that the Labouchere is best seen as a score card. Here's the basic 3D Labouchere:
First, get yourself a nice piece of graph paper with a printed grid of squares covering the sheet. Draw the above diagram in the middle of your paper (like tic-tac-toe), your goal is 9 units. Your first bet is 2. Here's the beautfiul part: If you lose, you can add the "2" to the left or right or top or bottom of any line. This means that you could lose the "2" bet 12 times in a row before your diagram forces you to bet "4" (beacause at that point you would have added a "2" to both ends of every line.
Remember, this is a only score card, at any time during your session, you can add up the numbers on the paper and subtract 9 and that's how far down you are. If some of your lines add up to 6 and others add up to 3, you can pick which bet you "feel" best about at that time, and you can add your losses wherever you want. I deally I would try to keep some sort of balance.
If I played this way for very long and did not reach my gaol of 9, I would probably look for a point where the total on the page was less than 9 and simply stop with whatever gain I had.I have not tried this method of scorekeeping in a real casino nor have I worked with my software or zumma shoes.
My interest in this approach is only to find a way to keep multiple lines going on one page in a coherent (and less confusing) manner.
