Martingales should be worn by horses only - and not used anywhere else!

yeah especially with a $100 bank roll

You are basically guaranteed to lose your money (unless get lucky and you stop at $200 or something), if you play for about 5 minutes.

$100 isn't enough with $5 FLAT bets, god help you if you start throwing crazy betting strategies in there.

Sorry for my ignorance but could someone explain to me why for example it is considered wrong to play 2 hands a time 10 each with 200 bankroll?
I understand you may lose quickly but you may win as well.Why is wrong then?

Nothing is "wrong" with it, but it doesn't give you alot of opportunity to ride out streaks.
