Going for red is too easy. btte bet all your money on 00 In couple of years, when they will become more greedy they may add another 0 to it, or more than 36 numbers Not that now they dont make crazy profits from this game.

More zeros would be in favour of the house, but more normal numbers wouldn`t. That is the point of a mini roulette, with only 0 and 1-12. Far better chance to hit the 0 => more profit for the house in the long run.

wow a mini roulette- who would ever thought of that? so does the amount of numbers on the table makes someones head hurt after enough booze? too many options to pick from? holy crap... what next- micro roulette? with one red and one black number and a 0, maybe even 00 added for some color balance...

Posted by pokkerimees: No reply from you, so i assume you have hit losing streak, toni.
Maybe you now believe, what gamblers, mathemathics etc. have being saying for centuries.
Normally play gambling regularly will loose most of the time winning from several days will lose in one or two days, except someone have talent as gambler (god of gambler maybe, is it real ? ). Just sometime gambling maybe can make profit.

Where are you, tonibralic? I hope you are doing ok. Well, I have been doing a little challenge or experiment on live roulette (by Evolution Gaming) games. What I have been doing at the roulette table is very simple and easy. I robotically keep betting on black and never alter the size of my bet no matter what. The minimum stake on even money bets being $0.50, the best/worst upswing/downswing I have experienced so far is ±20-unit bet, or ±$10.00. My current balance after well over $500 wagered on live roulette is -$2.50, or negative 5-unit bet. The result is not quite as good as I initially expected, but I had a great time chatting with hot female dealers, LMFAO!

Never had luck with roulette. I have only played once with a bonus roulette and i have say it was a bad decision. One which i didnt repeat. Lost everything very quickly. I have tried many things with play money, and none worked. Even the double up was hitting maximum allowed bet so many times

A -ev game is a -ev game.
So roulette, like blackjack and baccarat, is only worth playing, while clearing the wagering of a good bomus offer. But those are rare these days. Without a bonus even tricky betting pattern do not help.

In many sites when clearing a bonus, when you play roulette it counts for less than 100% of your bet. So this isnt even good, in this case either. Slots are better for clearing a bonus. Just a game to gamble a bit for fun, and then move on, to something else. If you hit, you hit. Thats it.

i think that roulette and baccarat cannot be compared to blackjack, considering the fact that with basic strategy and card counting it actually becomes a +ev game. but sure it's not for us mere mortals to take advantage of. agree that only some fat promo with little restriction onboard can turn a -ev game into a +ev one.

Yes i believe so, that you can make money out of blackjack, if they let you so You cant compare this game with the rest. If you are good on card counting it fives you on edge, at some point, since casinos are changing the rule every time, number of decks and when they shuffle.

Roulette is a game of pure chance like most games in casinos. No one has any edge when it comes to predicting which of the 37 (French/European-style) or 38 (US-style) partitioned sections the small ball settles into. The best you can do is understand the odds, manage your money wisely, and accept that you are not going to beat the house on the long term.

Blackjack card counting itself can be easily learned; It is just a simple addition and subtraction. I think even just a regular kid in elementary school can learn a counting system. But the hardest part about applying the advanced tactics and strategies (card counting is merely one of many tools) lies in player's ability to maintain a certain demeanor to avoid being detected unusual and/or as a counter by the casinos.
