Roulette is a casino game with a house advantage of about 25%, meaning they take $25 out of every $100 wagered pretty much guaranteed. Other games have better odds, or more specifically a lower house advantage. Specifically, blackjack, when played by a standard system against common house rules and a 6 deck shoe, will only be a 2% house advantage. Whatever game, the key is to walk away from a table when you are up in winnings. Donât be greedy. Donât go broke chasing a win. Donât bet with money you wouldnât otherwise be spending on entertainment. (Not the rent.). Always leave the table when you have won a fair amount, and pick another table later to try some more. Keep your winnings separate from your gambling money, and think twice about dipping into them.Back to roulette, because you will want to try it. Each number has a 1 in 38 chance of hitting, and usually pays 35 to 1 if you hit. You see the house edge already â it is built so that if you play all 38 spots, you will hit one, but still loose money overall. ($3). There are 1-36 and 0 and 00. Each has an equal 1 in 38 chance. The bets on red or black are not 50/50, because 0 and 00 are green. Columns and groups donât cover each other for payout either. Roulette is just a game of luck, strictly, and therefore cannot have a play strategy. (Other than playing consistently and walking away when you are up â like any game.)However, there is something that many people who work for casinos donât even know. If you analyze the amount of even red, odd red, black even, and black odd numbers, they will not fall equally divided amongst 36 numbers of the 38 spots. Different tables and felts may have different layouts, so I canât tell you what you will see, hut look out for it. Play the outside, both a colored and an odd/even bet. Play it consistently on the red/black odd/even combo that the table has a higher count of. Remember, 0 and 00 still ruin your day. This system doesnât make roulette a winning game, it just lowers the house advantage as much as possible for your play.More on house advantageâ¦Avoid slots. Avoid Keno. Avoid side bets and extra dollar antes for jackpots. Avoid all things but the pass/donât pass line on craps, and always double your odds on craps. Avoid poker tables that you play a game against a dealer, such as Let It Ride, if the table has many players sitting at it. Go for blackjack tables that have full seating. If playing blackjack, use the systemâ¦just look up blackjack in wikipediaâ¦even print a chart and take it with you. They let you use it.
