Suppose you first wage $1, if you win then you stop (and you have won). If you lose, then you wage $2. If you win, then again you have won and you stop. If you lose again, then you double you wager again to wage $4, and so on.
As long as there is a fixed positive probability that you can win in each round, then eventually you will win.
I think 科普 article should be accurate.
Also, I think most people already know what is said in the article 赌场看门道. It is not insightful at all. A weak article.
