Double Up and Double Down

[babs]

Thanks. I will look into that a bit closer. At this moment the system is still extremely raw. A lot of tweaking to be done. But this is fun.

This was a nice game. I played with RX and used real numbers (Westspiel). Played for 646 spins. I quit because of time, and my last spin was profit.  If only I could code this. I tried, but was not successful.

Starting BR 500
Played single Units
End BR 1700
Total Spins 646
Total Profit: 1200

Starting BR: 500
Ending BR: 1425
Profit: 925

Total spins: 855




So far this system is quite robust. I haven't done anything in terms of money management. I will attend to that later. I did made one tweak: I added Zero also. I play every spin with a unit on zero, which I increase according to my betsize. Whenever my betsize is will be bigger than my potential win if I hit zero, I increase zero with a unit. What amazes me is the way this system can make a comeback from a drawdown.


In the games I posted here, using Roulette Xtreme with Real Spins from Westspiel, this system made a profit of 3867 in 3364 spins. That is about 1.15 units per spin.

Thanks Babs, I shall be looking into this particular method.

Thanks Babs, nice to see you back.  I am at a loss as to how this works mathematically; I can't see why it should have an edge, but I'll test it for sure.

I also have no idea. As you can see in the graphs I posted of the system, it just does. I have played a few hundred of these games over the past few months (mostly I stopped as soon as possible after 150 spins, but I have played a few for as long as was possible.)

Be warned though: I had two games show an extreme drawdown. One of them is posted on this thread. What does surprise me is that this system has the ability to make a comeback and end in a profit... everytime. I had never played this system without being able to end in a profit (although the drawdown gets hairy at times).

Just to restate the system (with the one tweak I made so far):

1) Always bet at least one unit on 0. Increase this as the game progress by always making sure you will make more than you bet if 0 hits. i.e if your total bet is 35, keep 1 unit on 0 (thus, if 0 hits you make 1 unit). If your total bet increase to 36, put 2 units on 0 etc.)
2) Take the last number hit and divide and multiply it by 2, i.e. 6 - gives you 3 and 12. Bet 1 unit on each street that contains those two (street 1 and Street 4). Keep adding units to the necessary street. You only clear the board if your BR increased from its highest point (even if it is just by 1 unit). This requires some patience and guts.  During one game my total bet was 179 units (48 units on 1 street) and I still made a profit. Just keep adding units and keep an eye on your BR.
3) Certain numbers are special: 1 - it cannot be divided, so when 1 hit only add 1 unit to Street 1. If 2 hit, you add 1 unit to Street 1 and 1 unit to Street 2.  When unequal numbers hit, multiply by 2 i.e 7 x 2= 14. 7 cannot be divided, so subtract 1 and divide: 7-1=6 divided by 2 = 3. Thus if 7 hit, add 1 unit to Street 1 and 1 unit to Street 5.  19 is also special. Everytime 19 hits you add 1 unit to Street 3 AND 1 unit to Street 6 (18*2=36).  For numbers above 19 you simply add to the lower Streets since the Numbers cannot be multiplied.  This tend to favor the lower part of the streets (i.e. their bets become larger quicker - I am working on another method, but at this moment it works real well).

4) NB - ALWAYS restart whenever a profit that increases your BR by more than one is reach. DO NOT PLAY THIS WITH REAL MONEY YET. IT LOOKS PROMISING, BUT I HAVE NEVER PLAYED IT FOR REAL MONEY. I do however use numbers from real casinos (through RX20).

Didn't have much time to play the last day, but here is another nice game:



I stopped at Spin 287 since I was in a nice profit.

Starting BR: 500
Ending BR: 932
Profit: 432

This one was quite nice. Adding Zero to the mix made a huge difference.  This system still surprise me, especially coming back from a drawdown.

Out of the 11 games posted here, only One game would have destroyed my starting BR. I continued that game just to see what happens and it still ended in a profit, although the drawdown was over 4000 units.

Subtracting the losing game I still have a total profit of 2058 units after 11 games.

babs,

Roulette is a game of luck and will always be. Take  $ 500 cash to a  B & M casino and you will get a very rude awakening.

Not to dampen your enthusiasm but  this is  reality. Roulette and Craps are games of chance   while  Black Jack and Pai Gow Poker are games of skill. Of those   two  Pai Gow Poker is  by far  the better one .BJ is a tough one even if it is considered a game of skill.

I am not disagreeing with you. This is just my pet project. I enjoy playing Roulette, even without money. Precious few systems will hold up to Roulette in the long run... that has been proven over and over again.
