Here how it goes:
It has Red / Black / Green (just two are Green)
Odd / Even

And there's a board as to which numbers were played last. ( It usually goes back like 15 numbers or something like that )


here before i realized it wasn't.. whoopsie!

There are many systems for winning at such games. The system you have come up with is one of the oldest. It is pretty well guaranteed to get you seriously broke. The reason is that the house has deep pockets. It can can stand losing any number of times to you and still keep playing. But your funds are limited. So when the adverse run hits, you run out of money and have to stop. At which point the fallacy of the idea that you would get all your loses back plus your small profit is demonstrated.

After the second world war my dad and two buddies pooled their accumulated pay (from having been in prisoner of war camps) and followeed this system on dog racing. They had a bit of an edge because one of them was very good at studying the form of the dogs and predicting winners. For a time all went well and small profits accrued. But then the bad run hit and my dad found himself having to put the price of a small house on a dog knowing that if it did not win they were wiped out. The dog won but the experience convinced my dad that the system is a bad idea. In fact I'm not sure he ever bet on anything again for the rest of his life.

It's called the Martingale system, and the main thing in your way (assuming you have deep pockets) is that most tables also have a max bet.

Also the zero and double zero really kill you.

My favorite thing about Celphi is he thinks he can calculate revolutionary new ways to do things people have been doing for decades or more. Poor guy. A for effort though!

You can ask the house to raise its limit - or remove it entirely. If you are playing for serious money it will almost certainly agree.

There is a system that works for blackjack. You need a good memory. You count all the picture cards and tens which fall. What you are waiting for is a point at which your counting has established that there is a substantially higher number of picture cards and tens left in the shoe than normal. Now you bet like crazy. The point is that you, the player, have the option not to take another card on any hand but the dealer must take another card on 16 and below. Because the chance of a picture card or ten is higher than normal this means the dealer will bust often enough to shift the odds from favouring the dealer to favouring the player.

It is hard to do. Casinos used to put two decks in the shoe but when the counting idea took hold they changed to putting five decks in. And they don't deal down to the last few cards but rather leave quite a number unplayed at the end.

If the casino thinks you are counting you can expect to be asked to leave. And they share information on known counters so they can refuse them entry.

You have a fallacy that if red comes up 9 times in a row that the odds are that black will be next. It is always 50 50(not accounting for green). Additionally nobody will let you have a 40 dollar min bet and a 20000 max bet. It is typically 2 to 250. Still not terrible but very limiting. Additionally I found that betting on 1/3 and doubling pays out better. First 12 second 12 3rd 12 etc and doubling when losing. With 2 min and 250 max you might be able to walk away with 200-500 but you can easily lose 1000 when you reach max bet and still lose. 2.4.8.16.32.64.128.250. You have a roughly 2% chance of losing all bets of 2 through 250. Maybe closer to 3 or 4 with 2 greens.

Many people have played systems of all kinds in casinos.

But the casinos are still there and still very profitable.

The best odds are in craps, I think, where with double odds behind the line the house only has a 0.6% advantage against a good player. But most games have a much higher percentage to the house, and the casino's do all sorts of things to keep good players out of the game or distracted.
