In Response To: The opposite of a market loser (Tom Keith)

I just reread what you wrote and realize that "market nonloser" is not what you're looking for.

In a situation where you are trying to decide whether to double, there are three possible situations you might find yourself in two rolls in the future (the next time you get a chance to double) if you don't double now:

(1) Your position will be D/D. (You'll have lost your market.)

(2) Your position will be D/T. (You'll not have lost your market but you are good enough to double.)

(3) Your position will be ND/T. (You won't be good enough to double.)

I think you are looking for a name for the third type of sequence. ("Glad I didn't double!")
