Worst Betting System?

No, Nightfly, the proper answer is "Right", in most cases. Provided you own the casino. Surprisingly, though, Bob often talks as if he believes he has a winning system for a roulette player. I haven't yet figured out whether that is just more of his talk or whether he really believes it. |

| TheNightfly Member since: May 21, 2010 Threads: 22 Posts: 405 | You're right Doc, I stand corrected. If I owned a casino I could purposely win at roulette. If my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. If Bob truly had a winning roulette strategy he wouldn't waste the last few years of his miserable life posting here about old TV shows and train stations - instead he'd make money playing roulette and enjoy the high life. But I don't, she doesn't and he never will. Does he believe it? I'm sure that to some extent he does; that is, to the extent that he goes to the casino once every couple of weeks, pulls out $100 of his pension cheque, watches the wheel for 5 hours and plays $10 on the middle dozen after it has missed for 6 spins because he knows it's due. 3 times out of 4 he goes home with a tidy $30 profit, rubbing his hands together until his fingers pop, cackling to himself and anyone else who will listen about how he's once again beaten the house at their own game and the fourth time he goes home with empty pockets and curses the thieving casino and his run of bad luck. In the interim he posts his grumpy, cynical comments here and from time to time alludes to his mysterious but never failing roulette method/strategy with a slightly crooked grin on his withered old face, a sparkle in his eye and drool on his chin. Happiness is underrated |

I don't use systems, they don't work. And its not whether I believe it, its the casino that needs to be convinced. They don't pay losers very well, as Nightfly knows all to well.

I suppose that's better than having a sparkle on your chin and drool in your eye. But he's done more than allude to his method -- he's told us about it. He waits for the house edge to take a break, or something to that effect, and then places his bets. It's just as effective as the Mike Caro scientific roulette system that cuts the house edge to exactly zero.

| RaleighCraps Member since: Feb 20, 2010 Threads: 29 Posts: 601 | For us non roulette players, does Caro's system eliminate every possible number, leaving you with no option to bet? Always borrow money from a pessimist; They don't expect to get paid back !

Its best to do it while wearing sunglasses and a hat, so the HE doesn't spot you and rush back in before the ball hits the pocket.

'Equally'? Wrong answer. (Yeah, yeah I know.....show me Ken) So using a Marty will show exactly (or close to) the SAME results over 'X' number of months/years COMPARED to ANY other method? Hmmmm Ken If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
Playing at the casino doesn't make you a pro any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. I prefer to be hated for telling the truth, than loved for telling a lie. No person has yet convinced me that their way of playing roulette is better than my way. Winners have simply formed the habit of doing things roulette AP players don't like to do. I'm sure AP (roulette) worked just fine back in 1923. Gambler's Fallacy is a term coined by unsuccessful gamblers to validate their reasons for losing. 5.26%, so what?......I get taxed everyday. Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it. Bad news.....throwing in the towel after spending a TOTAL of 9 hours on roulette does NOT mean you can't be successful with it.
Don't let the '2+2 will never equal 5' crowd bring you down. TRIAL & ERROR guys, I can't say it enough! When you're finished changing, you're finished. |

The beauty of only play a couple numbers (with high units) is that if/when you are LOSING AT A SLOWER PACE, you get a few hits in a small number of spins AND THEN......its time to go home. Funny as it might sound, its all part of 'the plan' (the norm) to fall behind with my BR when starting out, waiting for those couple of hits....then leave. This damn game is not that tough, it gets TOO MUCH respect, in my opinion. Ken If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
