Default Re: Roulette -- probability and math question

when i went through my roulette gambling phase, before i wised up, i used to like the anti-martingale betting system, which is probably the best least risk system:

pre-decide a win, say 7 units

bet on red

if win leave the two on red (or switch to black if you feel like it ... what difference does it make????)

if win again leave the four on another even chance

if win the third in a row skim the seven and restart with one

every time you lose restart with one

you will erode your capital very slowly

and a reasonable one for blackjack was the Labouchere System because you needed less winning bets than losing bets to complete the set - it could get a bit hairy though if you had a bad run

What are the types of things that I and others do to beat the wheel? Assume I'm not BSing you, think about it with an open mind and perhaps you'll figure it out.

betting systems don't work

[/ QUOTE ]

Wow, what a genius, you have figured out that betting systems don't work. Oh, wait, you're the one who has admitted to having used a betting system in the past before you "wised up." To have ever fallen victim to that in the first place is quite telling as to your intellect. Anyhow, never in any of my posts have I claimed to use a betting system. If your head weren't so far up your posterior and if you actually read posts before weighing in with your "knowledge," perhaps you'd realize that.

there are no biased wheels in operation in any licensed casino (see if you can work out why this must be the case so you don't have to waste your time clocking every wheel in operation throughout the legitimate gambling world)

[/ QUOTE ]

Once again, this must be derived from your extensive experience in roulette advantage play.

therefore i have to conclude that you steal chips from other players or the house

[/ QUOTE ]

Yours is a very narrow world-view. If you would bother actually thinking about things on your own or maybe picking up a book, you'd do better for yourself than whatever wages are paid to tournament directors who can't cut it as players.

[ QUOTE ]
if you are playing at the same time, you must be stealing a great deal of the time to keep up with your losses, so i feel out of common decency i should warn you that you will be caught by the surveillance systems designed specifically and monitored diligently to ensure that the house does not operate at any disadvantage and to catch the cheats

[/ QUOTE ]

Haha. I see you know about as much about casino surveillance as you do everything else you decide to ignorantly expound on, which is to say, nothing.

Here's a survey for you, and I think I can safely predict that the answer to each question is the same:

1 - Have you ever placed an advantageous wager in a casino?
2 - Are you a professional gambler?
3 - Do you have a lifetime win at poker?
4 - Do you think I have a lifetime win at roulette after thousands of trials? [Hint: I have neither exploited biased wheels nor used a mathematical system, nor done anything illegal to play with an edge.]

In the end, I'm glad to see you posting here at these forums. It is people like you who think they know everything and refuse to learn anything who make poker a profitable game for people like me.

here's a system that sounds good - maybe you should buy it and sell it on?

http://www.targetroulette.com/

or i could tell you what i think it is, for free

(hint: ask the next fifteen or so people you meet what their birthdays are and you will probably find that at least two of them will be on the same day)

Where do I sign up?!?! Can I give you a credit card right now?

Yes.

I find this very hard to believe. But, then again, practically every losing poker player will tell you he's a winner.

You're quite welcome, but I think you're mistaken in which one of us is the troll.
