yea i never tried it i only play poker online like $5 in tournament or something on ladbrokes.
but a mate was telling me about the roulette tactic the other day, it seemed plausible but it does require a true 50/50 odds to actually pay out. however the table doesnt give 50/50 cos of the 1/50 of hitting green.

Bookies wouldn't be in the business if they didn't make money. Where does this money come from? You of course. Just look around at the amount of bookie shops and you'll see just how much money they're taking off people.
You can never win. The odds will always be against you. Even if it's just that extra 2% on the roulette wheel in the houses favour.

For that approach to consistently work it requires infinite money and no table limit which don't exist.
It's called the Martingale system (which is the doubling of the bet) and you would be in some kind of bankruptcy pact to try it.
Every spin is the same odds (I think 47.x% or something like that for either black or red) but what you introduce here is betting against a streak of one particular colour occurring, which whilst clearly becomes a low % of taking place, still is a high enough % for you to see pretty large streaks happening every 100 or so spins.
What you end up with in reality is something where you will take a reasonable flutter to play with and by making a modest starting bet you will only be able to support a very small streak (perhaps only 3-4 in a row) of your chosen colour before not having enough in the pot to continue with the system and seriously screwing yourself in the process for only the chance to win that original modest bet.
The system relies on you having a pot insanely larger than your bet to be 'viable', that is, since you're only playing for your bet it would take so long to win anything worthwhile in relation to the pot you have it's pointless and would take endless hours and hours of play; but in doing so will have to play so many spins that the eventuality of you bankrupting something silly like a £10,000 pot making £1 bets just becomes a certainty.

Not rigged but online casinos are a mug's game. Avoid.

i thought that Martingale system was could get you banned?
the only game i liked at a casino is blackjack as you only have to beat the dealer..whoever has the best value of cards wins, u also have a choice to stick or hit, the dealer has to go 17.
i like to play IN casinos, (though ive made a lot of money in online poker as its faster). you cant question it if things happen infront of you.
the casino has defo had more month off me that i have off it, even with blackjack (where im normally up)

This is foolproof as long as long as you can keep doubling your bet, and there is no max limit.
When partypoker first launched this could be done with £1 bets, doubling and doubling as required, and you could play even/odd red/black at the same time, as long as you kept track.
They have since introduced maximums of £500 or similar, and frankly you will get burnt by this now, badly burnt.
Once had 10 reds in a row when I was playing a black.
1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128, 256, 512 it was scary bikkies on that last roll seeing the black come up, so I worked out an overall profit of £1.
Runs like that are very very possible, the random number generators they utilise are aparently indepentently tested every so often.
Not worth it now with the minimum of 5 and max of 500 being far too close together to generate an income.
well the limit and the 00
I don't see why, as its going to fail because of the reasons mentioned previously in the thread, specifically the 0s and th bet limits. Roulette is a game the casino will always win in.
Yeah but any system that "might" mean the player wins get banned. Casino don't like losing. They are in the business of taking your money, not giving it away!!

Martingale System will always end in tears. Of sorrow for the punter and laughter for the casino; most of them would probably encourage you to use it.

Last time I went casino on roullete, I was there with a few friends and a few good games later and some money up I decided I was bored and didn't like betting that much. Whacked my entire £50 on (24) and turned around. I walked away with £1,600 ish. Felt so good about it I stayed longer and lost a couple hundred. After that I realised if I was to play any more I'd walk out with nothing.
To play roulette, go in with a limit win a small amount (if you win) and walk out. Do this once every so often and you'll be alright. A Friend of mine was down there multiple times a week, had to borrow money one night then the next hed be up hundreds and the next night hed had to borrow money again
its a viscious thing if you get addicted

its a viscious thing if you get addictedor they ban the odd person for using this "fool proof" system so more people wil ltry and use it and lsoe big time
that or it's not banned at all and it's just he people who make dodgy "give us $5 for this unbeatable roulette tactic" type as say it is to make people think it works.
