For the second time, the Ten-Count System had shown moderately heavy losses mixed with “lucky” streaks of the most dazzling brilliance. I learned later that this was a characteristic of a random series of favorable bets. And I would see it again and again in real life in both the gambling and the investment worlds.

This jibes with my own experiences as well. Luckily, I think I play pretty close to this system. I've always referred to it as "small-ball" but heavily weighted on the big hands where I think I have an advantage. Believe it or not, I've seemed to do OK. At worst, I've only had moderate losses.
