Can anyone explain this: I came across and old PLACE staking plan submitted by Bhagwan, bet in succession 1,2,3 etc. revert back to 1 unit as soon as a divi of $1.60 is struck.

Now, I have been working on a revamped place plan with heaps of action, after 489 bets it is showing 2.49% POT (best tote) with a S/R of around 58% I was starting to get interested in that as it is, but thought I'd just run that Bhagwan plan over it just for fun.

Came up with 102 units profit which is 7.18%. POT

I'm perplexed as that defies my own assertion that increasing stakes will not better a level stakes profit (or loss)

Any input?
