well i just played roulette for the first time a few days ago, i threw down a 20 and turned it into 400 in about a half hour

then i got greedy the next day and lost about 80... but im still up 300$ //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

anybody else ever played this. i was just playing the edges where the odds are 50/50 and your money just doubles, so i just kept doubling it and it gets up into the hundreds real quik...

The trick to winning big money at roulette is having the balls to make a

160$ + bet... but at the same time thats how you lose your ***...

just thought id share.

Roulette is the only table game I'll play at casinos.

I'll usually end up at least breaking even, which is good for me. The one thing I did like about playing table games out in vegas (especially at smaller casinos) is that they give you tons of free drinks. At one point in the game I had 3 beers on the table and was more concerned about drinking than playing. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I'm usually a wussy though and play the numbers. 50/50 odds just don't cut it for me, especially when numbers will pay 35-to-1.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

If you know how to play the table right (and have the money), theres a 90% chance that you can win every time, or at least get your money back.

Don't let that luck fool you, play long enough and you will lose. It is just a matter of math.

Now poker, that is where you can make some money.

i was just thinking, that if you bet on two of the thirds, with the same money, say bet 5 on the 1st 12, and 5 on the senond 12 on the same turn, that gives you over 60% chances of hitting one of the two, so youll lose one 5 but, win the other one, and it pays 2 to 1, so you double one bet and cancel the other one out.

You should go up steadily shouldnt you?

I ended up hitting the casino last night around 4, I covered booze and food spendings for the evening with my winnings so I'm a happy gambler.

No. Because about a third of the time you will lose both bets -- twice as much as the amount you stand to win, so it roughly equals out.

Then you have not accounted for the 0 and the 00, which provides the house all the edge it needs.

Exactly, forgetting about the 0's there bud. Even assuming you find a European roulette with only a single 0 you're still looking at around a 2.7% vig, most likely you were playing American, with 2 zeros and a 5.26% vig. Compare that to the pass line on craps with a 1.41% or don't pass with 1.36%.

Another "system" that people sometimes think will beat roulette is to pick a color, bet on it, and then if you lose, bet on it again - this time doubling your bet. Repeat until you win -- at which time you will win your orginal bet. Try this on your computer games and you may fair ok. Try this at the casino and you will lose your ***.

I think the other poster is right -- craps provide the least house edge. Its either that or Blackjack -- I don't play any of these games. If you are playing against the house then simple math dictates you will lose if you play long enough.

Poker is the only game I will play.
