The Labouchere For Roulette - Sponsored by Star Luck Casino
A favourite staking system among roulette players is the "Labouchere" and it works like this: Write down the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 on a piece of paper. To calculate your next stake add the first and last numbers together. The first bet in this example would therefore be 5 points.
If a bet wins, cross off the two outside numbers. If your first bet was a winner, this would leave you with 2, 3 and your next bet would therefore be 5 points. (The 1 and the 4 are crossed off.)
If a bet loses, simply add the size of the losing bet to the end of the sequence. For example, if your first bet lost, your sequence would now be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and your next stake would be 6 points (5 + 1).
This system is not infallible and should only be used on even money chances. However, it's a much better system than the dangerous Martingale system that so many roulette players foolishly employ.
BREAKING THE MYTH - Roulette Tips and Tricks
Some players believe the key to winning is betting a progression. A progression is simply doubling your bets when you lose to try and recoup your losses. This is a losing strategy.
For example, say you wanted to play roulette at a $5 minimum bet table using a progression. You lose your $5 first bet, so you bet $10. If you lose again, you bet $20 and so on. Let's say you finally win at the $40 dollar level. You have already lost three progressive bets totaling $35, so you have made $5 overall.
Casinos know this system and take a simple precaution. They put a maximum bet limit, which can be anywhere from $25 to $15,000 per hand. If you hit a losing streak while betting a progression, and bump against the maximum, you will not be able to automatically recoup your losses by doubling your bet again if your doubled bet would be larger than the maximum bet accepted. This makes progression betting a long run loser.
Betting a progression system will cost you money in the long run. There is no way to alter the odds of a game simply by changing your bet size.
