PlasticJock 539 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 I love roulette... Got a simple system that works but you need a fair starting purse. Got kicked out of the last casino a few months ago, think they call it minimal risk betting? I got my mate into trouble, I jokingly said 'why not just bet £1 on black, if it loses double your bet, then when you win again just go back to £1 and do it again'....I just meant it as a joke since if you double your bet each time it can become ridiculous very quick. Well he wasn't as clever as I thought and emptied his bank account, but we were students so it was about £100... i did this a few years back now in las Vegas. doubled up every time and i had to stop as i ran out of chips and spent what i budgeted for that day. a bet on black 8 times in a row and it was red! have been back a couple times since then and have walked away a few $ up. That's my system The chances of the same colour coming in more than 7 times are ridiculous, so as long as you have enough for say 10 repeat double bets you'll be up no problem. Just stick a quid on 0 just in case Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just stick a quid on 0 just in case haha, how has it worked for you? The thing is with odds though, is that even if it comes up red 100 times in a row the chance of it being black the next time is always 50/50 so you can't win. But sticking £10 on red then a bit on a few choice blacks is a safer bet than just scattering chips about I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As I said the odds of a colour coming in more than 7 times is vary low... If your starting bet is low enough you can keep going and as long as you keep doubling it, when it does come in you've got all you lost plus the original bet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,769 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) I like a punt. I've gambled from horses to dogs to what colour the next car coming round the corner. Im exactly the same......not into betting shops myself but i,ll bet on virtually anything ive had some ridiculous bets over the years......myself and a few pals have an account.......with each other thats how stupid some of the things we bet on are.....we normally carry a bit of paper around to keep tabs....then settle up every few months.........sad i know. As regards little systems.....a few seasons ago just for a bit of fun i decided to start off with 100 pound and bet on the highest odds football match every week and with the winnings put the lot on the next highest odds match the next week......obviously your only winning bits at a time but over about a year it had built up to just over a grand....when it all went tits up when Barcelona lost 2-1 at home to some little Russian mob in the champions league ....but it was good fun.

Ratreeper 441 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 OK then, what is the daftest bet you have ever made? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lab 10,979 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 OK then, what is the daftest bet you have ever made? I bet £1000 that your Mum couldn't take 17 of us in a row..............................lost a grand.... (we'll call that even i think).......... Not a gambler myself. I like a wee flutter on things like the National or the odd coupon. Used to bet correct score at the football but stopped that after sometimes hoping your own team never scored anymore..... Love a bet playing pool or a couple of quid at golf................. My Dads the serious gambler.........thank f**k i dont have his gambling streak, i'd be skint.......
