How does the 1-3-2-4 work?
In the 1-3-2-4 gambling system, the sequence of winning bets is 1, 3, 2, 4. If you win all four bets, you go back to the start. If you lose any bet, you also go back to the start. So long as you're winning, you progress through this sequence.
Win - even when you lose!
You win big with the 1-3-2-4 when all four bets come up (a 1 in 16 chance) But the great thing about the 1-3-2-4 is that as long as you win the first two bets (1 in 4), you're guaranteed to win, even if the third bet loses! If your first bet loses, your loss is 1 unit. If the second loses, your loss is 2 units (you'll have bet 4, won 2) This is the 'danger point', but once you're past it, you literally can't lose. Even if the third bet loses, you make a profit of 2 units, because you'll be 4 units up after bet 2! If the third and fourth win, your overall profit is 10 units. But even if the fourth bet loses, you still come out with a profit of 2 units.

A system for the real world
The main difference between this and the 1-3-2-6 is in the consecutive win test. This gambling system returns a profit of 5 as opposed to 1. This is offset by making 22 as opposed to 26 on the good win test. In our opinion, though, the consecutive win test is more realistic than the good win test. As our overall gambling strategy explains, a good gambling system should make consistent profits in realistic situations rather than larger profits in less realistic ones.

Betfair state that playing the zero house edge games with an optimal player strategy guarantees you a payout rate of 100% - in other words, the casino expects to win nothing from these games!

The 1-3-2-4 in Baccarat and Sic Bo Another reason for using the 1-3-2-4 is that in Punto Banco (Baccarat), the vigorish (the commission taken on winning banker bets) means that the 1-3-2-6 turns a loss in most situations. The 1-3-2-4 allows for this and returns a profit instead. This is explained fully in our Punto Banco strategy. The 1-3-2-4 is a simple system to operate and we recommend it for low-risk gamblers. It is another of our preferred gambling systems for the Big/Small bets in Sic Bo - see Sic Bo winning strategy for explanation. Test it yourself - risk-free However, you may prefer to try it first on the more familiar 50/50 bets (Odd/Even, Red/Black, 1-18/19-36) in roulette.

The 1-3-2-4 system - tested
Keep your winnings
We devised this gambling system because we feel that for lower-risk gamblers the 1-3-2-6 takes too much of a risk once you've won 3 bets. Where the 1-3-2-6 gambles all 6 of your profit on the fourth bet, this system keeps 2 back. ![]()
