Best Roulette Casino Bets
Roulette is simple to learn and play and is therefore one of the most
popular games - you don't have to think about odds, you can't affect the final
outcome and if you win you're just lucky and not a tactical genius. As the game
offers a wide range of bets, from single number (paying out at 35/1) to
straight even bets such as odd/even, black /red high/low (which pay out Evens),
you do have to manage your money.
Never forget that the longer you play, the more the certainty of you
gradually reducing your play money - albeit at a small amount per spin. So, if
you put all of your gaming money on a single number on the first spin of the
roulette wheel, you statistically have a better chance of winning than if you
eke it all out over an hour. No-one actually does this in practice as it makes
for rather a short evening's entertainment if you lose. You pays your money and
you takes your choice - are you there for fun or to win?
Generally the house advantage is 2.7% for UK roulette and 5.26% for its US
counterpart, which has an extra zero. So, if you want to increase your odds and
have the choice, always play with a single zero wheel. If playing American
roulette, avoid the single bet covering 00, 0, 1, 2 and 3 (known as a five bet)
which pays out 6/1 - effectively giving the house a big 7.9% advantage.
Finally, don't try to predict the numbers based on those that have come up
before. If the last six numbers were all red, the chance of it being black the
next time is still 50-50. Those pop-ups on your PC offering foolproof roulette
systems are scams.
TIP
This sounds moronic but works. Whenever you win, pocket the larger denomination
chips and forget them. Bet freely with your remaining chips and you should at
least be able to cash something out at the end of your session. Leave chips in
front of you and they have a habit of evaporating…
