INTERESTING STRATEGIES TO HELP ACHIEVE SUCCESS IN ROULETTE

Winning Moments: Strategies for Success in Live Roulette

Some casino games like slot machines do not require any skill at all. Even though a few slot enthusiasts may swear by various systems, the results always boil down to sheer luck. Then there are games like roulette which is the subject of many systems and strategies. While no roulette system has proven to be successful over the long run, many of them can indeed yield positive results in the short term. The key is knowing when to walk away. Let’s look at four of the most popular roulette strategies that you can use to increase your chances of netting a profit.

Martingale Strategy

Martingale is perhaps the most commonly used roulette betting system. It also happens to be one of the easiest to understand. This system is primarily used for outside bets like Red/Black, Odd/Even, or Hi/Lo that offer even odds. You start by placing a 1-unit bet. If you win, then you keep wagering one unit until you lose.  When you lose, you simply double the stake amount.

So, if you place a losing $1 bet, then you wager $2 on the next round. If you lose that one, then you double the stake again to $4, and so on. The idea is that a single win will result in a 1-unit profit. The downside is that a prolonged losing streak can wipe out your bankroll. Proceed with caution.

Andrucci Strategy

The Andrucci roulette strategy is a tad more labor-intensive than most others, but it is very easy to understand and implement. Start by wagering on outside bets for 35 or 40 rounds. Make sure to write down the winning number for each of those rounds. This is easy if you use live roulette streams and results are right in front of you. After those 35 to 40 rounds, look at the results and find the number that won the most. You then start placing straight wagers on that number. If successful, each win will net you a 35:1 return.

This strategy is better suited to gamblers who want to bet on hot numbers. Just remember that the roulette wheel does not have a memory and previous results have no bearing on future outcomes. Still, the Andrucci system adds an extra element of excitement and the prospect of a big win.

D’Alembert Strategy

Like Martingale, the D’Alembert strategy is typically used exclusively on outside bets that pay even money. Let’s say you go with a $1 betting unit. If you lose, then you increase your next bet by one unit. So, you would wager $2 on the next round. If that bet loses, you then go with a $3 stake sizing on the next round. 

Now, when you win, you decrease the stake size by one unit. D’Alembert isn’t quite as risky as Martingale and a few others in terms of increased bet sizes, but a long cold streak can still hurt you. Also, you probably won’t win a lot of money using D’Alembert.

Fibonacci Strategy

The Fibonacci sequence is a set of numbers in which the next number is equal to the sum of the previous two numbers. As it relates to roulette, these numbers represent a multiplier of the base stake size. 

It goes like this:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, and so on. 

When applied to roulette, it is similar to D’Alembert and Martingale in that it is a progressive betting system that is applied to even-money bets. With each loss, you increase your wager size to the next number in the sequence. After a win, you go back two numbers. So, if you win at the 5-unit level, you would go back to the 2-unit bet size.

Conclusion

One of the most important things to understand about roulette strategies is that they only work when used for short periods of time. Again, no roulette strategy works over the long run. You should also know that some strategies are much riskier than others. If you are going to try one, make sure that you understand the drawbacks and choose one that involves the type of risk that you are comfortable with. Enjoy those winning moments!!
