ROULETTE STRATEGY
When comes to roulette, there is basically no strategy. But, if you're going to play, European roulette is the way to go. The difference being, in American roulette, the wheel has 38 slots with "0" and "00". The European version has 37 slots with only "0". The math behind the game is straightforward. Consequently, many people have proposed a roulette strategy, such as the Martingale system, that professes to exploit this simplicity. The problem with trying to develop a proper roulette strategy is that all of the bets on the table calculate out to the same house edge of 5.26% (on American tables). The only exception to this rule is the five-number bet, which has an even worse edge of 7.29%! Follow these tips to give you the best chance of winning:
Wager on low-odds and even-money bets as they offer the lowest house advantage when playing roulette.
Only play at casinos that offer European roulette. With that extra zero in American roulette, the house has a 5.26% advantage where as with European roulette, the house has a 2.7% advantage.
Don't bet on the five-spot or top line (0, 00, 1, 2, 3) on American roulette.
Set a specific target amount of money to play roulette with. Once you lose it, quit. Roulette should be played for its entertainment value.
