Albert Einstein once tried to figure out a winning roulette strategy and came to the conclusion that the only way to win at roulette is to steal chips when the dealer isn't looking...good sense of humour Albert.
I'm assuming you are already familiar with the rules of roulette and you have knowledge of inside, outside bets and the winning odds. Chances of hitting a straight up bet is less than 3% which can leave you thinking roulette isn't the game for you...hang on.
Give this technique a shot when you hit the casino next time and hopefully you'll be hitting the cage to cash out.
The idea is simple...use just enough chips to cover the maximum amount of numbers and at the same time lose the least amount of money...provided you hit your block of 9 numbers.
Check out the diagram below:
In the above diagram we use 10 one dollar chips (assuming we came with a $100 bankroll). Look at the middle row of numbers running down the table i.e.: 2, 5, 8, 11, 14 etc.
Pick two numbers down the middle and place a straight up bet on each number. I've chosen 11 and 23 in the diagram.
Now place one chip in each corner around the numbers 11 and 23 like the diagram indicates.
You will end up covering 18 numbers in total which is half the roulette board. See the diagram below indicating the numbers you've covered.
Now, let us focus on the first set of 9 numbers we've covered i.e.: the numbers around 11
If you hit 8, 10, 12 or 14, the pay-out is $16 ($7 profit)
If you hit the number 11 straight up, the pay-out is $67 ($58 profit)
If you hit 7, 9, 13, or 15, the pay-out is $8 (lose $1)
The first time I used this technique I turned $100 into $500 and yes, I did cash-out. So this can also be a winning roulette technique for you as well.
As for the other numbers you don't cover...we don't talk about that because we don't focus on losing...only winning boys. Good luck!
Our next post is all about grinding it out. What to do when you're down on chips and you need to build a bankroll slow and steady to play some big spins.
