None of the above phenomena were quantified.  Based on Monte Carlo calculations and the application of a modified central limit theorem, Les Golden quantified these effects and indicated how players can regain some of their lost advantage by variations in strategy and a suggested betting sequence.

The step-wise betting strategy based on these findings was shown to increase the player's expected winnings by a factor of up to 2.6.
