Whenever someone announces a system for beating the house, one should check
carefully before believing it.  If my computation is correct, the proposed
algorithm leads to an expected loss of about $41.57.

For those few individuals with a sufficiently large bankroll to survive
the possible large loss, this game might be mostly harmless, and perhaps
it's an amusing way to blow 42 bucks.  But I wouldn't recommend it as an
investment strategy.
