For example:
You bet £1 on red, red comes up and you win £1 so you've now got your £1 plus the £1 you've won (£2), you are up £1..
Say you bet £1 and lose.. you then bet £3 and lose, so you then bet £8.. And this time you win so win £8, meaning you get £16 including your bet.
£1 + £3 + £8 = £12.. You are up £4 over all..
Get it?
That can easily go horribly wrong tbh. Been there, tried that.

Don't forget there's table max's too. No method is without it's flaws unfortuantely.

Thats lovely if it doesn't land on 0 (which it will eventually). And if you run out of money you've lost a fortune. It doesn't work, the 0 guarantees the casino will always win in the long run, and the punter will always loose.

Landing on zero house wins.. You just lose your bet, same as if it doesnt land on your colour, some houses even only take 50%.

Yes, but the percentages are against you.
If the colours were evenly split you would win exactly 50% of the time.
Because of the 0 you loose 51% of the time, but only win 49% so you will loose regardless.
I've never heard of the house only taking 50% of the stake though but even so, you will still loose whilst there is a house edge, you just loose a bit less

but it doesnt matter, you are always up as you either win or lose and its almost 50:50 you just never win very much as the risk isnt very high, but its enough to have some fun and make some spending money
Do the maths, it works!

And when you hit the table max as Brett said?
Sounds very Martingale method.

but it doesn't work as i've just explained with my percentages. If the best you can hope for is to win 49% of the time you will loose more than you win. That is the maths.

My roulette "system" that has worked for me a hell of a lot in the past. Biggest win being £1100 in 45mins or somethin. Copied from previous thread...

I'll enlighten everyone...
At our local casino, the croupiers are on for somethin like 1:30m at a time IIRC then rotate to another table. This method is best to use once said croup has been on the table for a little while. They're stood there bored and just spinning the wheel. If they're shite then each time they'll be spinning the wheel/ball at almost the same rate each time.
Soo... They spin the wheel, then they spin the ball the other way. Watch closely and see where the ball is spun from (the number) then see where it lands. Look how far it's moved round the wheel from where it was dropped.
Assuming they do a similar spin, it'll land in the same region and move the same distance around the table each time from where the ball is dropped.
I never play colours, only numbers, better odds. I'll lay a fiver on about 5 numbers in the region I think it's going to land and generally it'll land there (assuming there rate of spin is the same).
Obviously this relies on your placing your bets once the ball has been spun.
Hope that's understandable. Deny it all you want, it has worked for me.

now thats more like a winning system, so long as you trust the person spinning!

I should hope you wouldn't know the person otherwise you might get in trouble lol
If anything, just act casual and try not to be too obvious watching the wheel.
Honestly, it works, usually with females best because they're always gabbin.

Doesnt matter! You will always get your money back because its still an almost 50/50 chance.. If you hit black say 10 times in a row theres something wrong and its time to leave lol.
How can you argue it wont work, its proven..
You have a 49% chance of hitting your colour, so you have a 49% chance of doubling your money, if you dont win on that spin you re-bet at 2.5 times your previous bet, if you win you are up, if you dont win you re-bet and 2.5 times the previous bet again until you win and you are up. simples!

No they wouldnt because you cant make lots of money doing it, the returns are very limited so there isnt the big risk, big win factor that most gamblers actually gamble for

You're obviously fortunate enough to know the right people. It doesn't usually work like that in the real world.

Hard work pays off, I'm 18 (just finished A levels, and have had 6 different employees and everyone would give me an excellent reference, as would my sixth form. My newest job was just from being a customer
