O'Hagan's rule

I have just watched the latest of Phil Simborg's excellent videos for USBGF members. He cites John O'Hagan's Rule which I think says that, in a money game, if you are sure your opponent will take, then you should double if at least 25% of your rolls are market losers.

My question is: how do you factor in those of your rolls which are really bad for you?
