Roulette Systems and Odds of Winning

Future Relies On History

Every system of Roulette relies on the past data for the future predictions as to what is going to be the result of the future spins.

Attempts To Predict the Winners

The major problem is a roulette ball doesn't have any memory and therefore each spin is independent and not connected at all. Here, the usage of the roulette system fails in the future prediction of the spins. So, if the system does not have data for analysis, then it is also impossible to have any mathematical calculations.

Odds of the Roulette

Everyone knows that this is purely a game of chance. If the ball lands 32 times or even 99 times on red, still it doesn't mean that the next time it will again land on red. So, the winning odds are always 50%. This is a deep- seated flaw of any of the roulette systems. After reading this, you must have surely understood that the data of the past is useless and in no way can it help to predict a future through a mathematical system.

Playing Long Enough Until One Wins in the End

There are some systems who advice to increase the size of the bet after losing the bet and to go on and on until you win. Also, this system is named as Negative progression system. This logic behind such type of system is that there is an assumption in every session that the gambler will be in a position to leave the game on winning, if it is played for a longer period.

Martingale System

Theoretically, it sounds great, but when it is put into practice, it can turn expensive and won't work, unless you are too rich and have an unlimited bankroll. In any case the gambler is likely to lose over the time, and the casino clubs too have limitations on the number of successive bets on all the roulette tables.

Roulette System of Positive Progression

This is another system of betting commonly known as pyramid or letting of a profit ride. When the player is hot and winning, he aggressively puts in his prize money, in order to make it a Jackpot or a bigger payroll. There is a downside to this system. One cannot continuously win in a game of chance and therefore the odds will not be in the players favor.

So, it is a personal opinion that if you've made any amount of money then you must bank it as you won't be able to outfox the house edge.

There can be times when the player is in a superior position, but not to forget the fact that in the longer run, the casino will gain profits and the player will in fact end up losing more even after a rare win. The same rule applies to every game of chance like baccarat, slots, etc. The house can never lose and it does not make sense to beat the house even after the mathematical calculations and the roulette systems fail. If you do this you will be losing your finances and the house will anyway take the advantage of it.

If you wish to play the game just for the entertainment and the fun element, then Roulette is the right choice for you. Unlike card games like Blackjack and poker you cannot make money in Roulette. If you desire to play an exciting and fun game, then roulette is the best choice for you and the winning odds are also not too bad as one might think, if you are aware of the technique of betting.
