I know there is a term for betting a number in every way it can come up. For example, red 7, you would bet the number straight up, the corners, odd, red, first third, third column, etc. What is that called and where can I find out about it?

TIA.

Is this possible? That is, would the chips fit around the square, since if it's in the center column, you have to put what amounts to a 3x3 array of chips around it? (To bet the 5, for example, you put chips:
(a) on the 1-2-4-5 corner;
(b) between the 2 and the 5;
(c) on the 2-3-5-6 corner;
(d) between the 4 and the 5;
(e) on the 5;
(f) between the 5 and the 6;
(g) on the 4-5-7-8 corner;
(h) between the 5 and the 8;
and (i) on the 5-6-8-9 corner?

Full complete. That is the phrase I've heard, and it also means the bets are in proportion: one unit on the number, two on the splits, etc.

That is for the inside bets only
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roulette#Full_completes.2Fmaximums

to include all the outside bets also, I have never seen a term for it, not that there isn't one
It is not in Roulette Xtreme, so I do not know

Yes, that's it! Thanks.

For example, a complete bet on 17, with a $1000 unit, would be equivalent to this set of straight-up bets:

$2000 on 13
$4000 on 14
$2000 on 15
$6000 on 16
$12000 on 17
$6000 on 18
$2000 on 19
$4000 on 20
$2000 on 21

Is this correct?

I hope you found your answer. More interested in why?
12 units on the 17 would pay 35*12= 420 units
A complete pays 392 units for a #17 hit
392/35 will not work out
even if you add the outside bets, that adds only 7 units to the win
added: Ah, 4 units on each outside bet does work.
Got it

Shouldn't you have some on Black and Odd also?

Yeah that should work.
But with a max bet of 1 unit straight-up one could certainly bet more than 4 units on an outside number to arrive at his 420 unit payoff.

I am more interested on the why behind the question

In reality, I do not think the casino actually places these bets on the layout as shown in my photo.

Never watched this type of action before.

It's how a high roller can exceed the house maximum for a given number. There isn't much reason to make a full complete bet if you're not already maxed out on the number you want - the payoff is always better for a straight up bet than anything else.

Edit: never mind, I think I answered a different question than you were asking...

I believe they place a lammer or a single chip on the number. The full complete action I have heard about is all on tables reserved for a single player.

Have you related the full story about your experience with Johnson anywhere?

Thank you ... what would a complete bet on 17 be with a $5.00 unit?
That is a little more my style than what you've depicted.

I know that for some reason 17 is a popular number, indeed I believe it is the most popular number to be bet, but is this because it is somewhat visually in the middle of the table or because it is arithmetically in the middle of what is available even though it is physically just one slot of many on the wheel and there is no particular "start", "middle" or "end" to a wheel.

Divide every value above by 200.

$10 on 13, 15, 19, 21
$20 on 14,20
$30 on 16,18
$60 on 17

$200 total bet.
