Many people think that Roulette Systems are a guaranteed way to beat Roulette or that Roulette Systems are all false. The fact is, a Roulette System is simply a Roulette Strategy (a way to play Roulette). No Roulette Strategy is fool-proof, but using a good Roulette Strategy can greatly increase the number of winning Roulette sessions you have.
Martingale strategy
This is probably the most widely known general Roulette strategy known to man.
The Patient Player this Roulette strategy is good for the player who has a good deal of patience and wants to bet a little more.
MARTINGALE ROULETTE SYSTEM
The Martingale Roulette System dates back about 300 years, according to my research. It is simply a progression system for even-money bets and is used in casinos, in some form or another, every day of the year all over the world. The Martingale betting system is a progression chain. You have to decide, according to your bankroll, how long that chain is going to be. Most casino players limit the Martingale Roulette progression chain to eight bets. Let’s take a look at what those eight bets would look like if you were a $1 player.
Bet Number One $1
Bet Number Two $2
Bet Number Three $4
Bet Number Four $8
Bet Number Five $16
Bet Number Six $32
Bet Number Seven $64
Bet Number Eight $128
As you can see from the chart, your total bankroll would need to be at least $255 for the session to run this Martingale chain. If you were a $5 bettor, you would need $1,275 to run the Martingale Roulette progression chain.
If your even-money bet hits anywhere from the first bet to the eighth, you win one unit. In the table above, you would win $1. The first question that pops into one's mind is why in the world would someone bet $128 to win $1. The answer for most Martingale players is that the probability of losing nine times in a row is somewhat minimal and therefore, you are not just winning $1, you are winning back all of your money.
The European version of Roulette is approximately, all things being equal, 20% safer than the American version of Roulette. The probability of losing nine consecutive even money bets exists all the time, but over the long run, it should happen about as often as stated in point (B) in the table. If you are going to use the Martingale system for Roulette, you should limit your playing sessions. Remember, the ONE in (B) can happen at any point during those spins.
However, if you were able to achieve the mathematical accuracy represented here, the Martingale system would prove to be a profitable one, even on the American version of Roulette. Out of 320 spins, 311 would be winners (9 lost). For the $1 bettor, this would be a intake of $311. The Martingale chain, with eight steps, costs $255. Therefore, you would end up with $56 per spin cycle ($311-$255).
If you are tight with money and scared of losing it, the Martingale system for Roulette is not for you. Martingale players would be wise to have amble bankroll to sustain losses and to limit playing time. Knowing that your ultimate expectancy per cycle is $55, for the $1 bettor, it would be wise to leave the table once you have a portion of that in hand to start with.
ROULETTE SYSTEM FOR PATIENT PLAYER
As the name implies, you must be a patient player to use this system. Also, you need to play at a table that allows you to watch spins without participating. If you are playing online, this may not be an option. Some online casinos force you to bet before they spin the wheel. If you really want to use this system, you can bet odd and even (minimum bet each) and then bet a couple times the minimum bet (at least) when you play the system. This will allow you to facilitate the Roulette action and be at a minimal loss for doing so.
