Roulette has 38 numbers - 1 to 36, one 0, and one 00. Half are red, half are black; half are even, half are odd. It appears that the casino doesn't offer nearly 50/50 odds on bets, whether on red/black, even/odd, or 1-18/19-36, as each round of betting is essentially a 50/50 chance. While the payouts might seem low (1:1, bet $100 to win $100), the overall odds are favorable.
If 1:1 payouts don't entice you, you can slightly increase your chips and expenses to 2:1 odds by betting on columns. This way, you reduce your odds to less than 1/3 while doubling the winnings (bet $100 to win $200).
There's also a betting method designed for players who like hedging their bets on the roulette wheel. The layout of the betting board is intriguing - specifically the top row. The third column contains 8 red numbers and 4 black numbers, while the second column is the opposite, with 8 black numbers and 4 red numbers.
Smart players can take advantage of this layout to gain steady but gradual profits. By betting on the third column with double the bet on black (bet $100 on the third column and $200 on black), you have two potential outcomes: either you neither win nor lose or you win money. The third column has more red numbers than any other column, and you're betting on black for a 50% chance.
The odds for the third column are 2:1, while the odds for black are 1:1, so your column bet should be half your black bet. This is because if the third column shows a red number, you win double your column bet but lose your black bet, resulting in no net loss. When a black number in the third column appears, you can continue. This betting system minimizes risk while offering a chance for consistent profit. The same approach applies to red and the second column's combination - with only half the numbers of your chosen color compared to the 8 numbers in the second column.
If you're worried that the potential payout is more than you can handle in terms of risk, it's highly recommended to place a straight bet on a single number. It may sound like a high-stakes bet, but it's worth considering, especially if you hope Lady Luck will be on your side. It's riskier but offers a 35x payout, which means that betting $10 can yield a substantial profit of $350. Does that sound tempting?
Similarly, with $3,500, you could technically make $1,000 bets continuously on roulette until you have won at least once, potentially leaving the game with $35,000 in profits. The exact number you bet on has around a 2.7% or 37-to-1 chance.
If you'd like to double your bets but are apprehensive about direct betting, you can still split the bets, which lowers the risk. You can select two adjacent numbers on the roulette wheel, either horizontally or vertically, and place your chips in between them. The payout odds of 17:1 are better than direct betting at 37-to-1. |
