One thing I feel I am 100% correct on is a NICE SIZE bankroll. Not real sure if there's such a thing as 'too much' but I sure as heck know, you can have too little. You should not walk into the casino with $300, sorry. You need to have enough for the DROP (if there is one) and then hopefully the climb back up comes soon after. $300 is not gonna cut it, in my opinion.

At a $ 25 table minimum  the  proper banlroll should be  $ 2 , 250.00.

At some  casinos  with  $ 3  table minimum a $ 300 bankroll is  sufficient.

A good rule of the thumb is  to multiply the  average bet by 20 for  a comfortable bankroll again  multiplied  by 3.

The win goal  decreases  in proportion to the higher bankrolls    ( $ 3, 000.--  and above  )




N.D.

Who else does this? (I dont) >> You're at a busy table. A couple of guys bet on the same number and the entire damn table starts piling chips on that same number. Why? I guess it looks cooler if everone gets paid. They have no real reason to bet on THAT number but the taller the stack with all the pretty colors, looks NEAT. 


No thanks, not for me.

Ken

These are 8 steps that IN MY OPINION, are the keys to this here game known as roulette >>

A) Betting 2-4 numbers max.

B) No betting COLD numbers (due).

C) A high BR (a nice cushion for losses).

D) Discipline/patience/knowing when to quit for the day.

E) Flat betting, very few progressions these days.

F) Stay sharp and always willing to learn new things.

G) Don't listen to the...'you can't win' crowd. Usually those guys are the SAME guys that also do NOT win and they want to bring you down with THEM. Misery loves company.

H) Be creative and think outside the box. The goofier the idea for a winning method, the more likely it'll produce NICE PROFITS. You can NOT think like everyone else !!!!!

I find this interesting......I usually bet only two numbers. How do I know I have a pretty good method? The obvious, I leave with more money than I walked in with but thats not all.

I cant tell you the number of times that ball ends up NEXT to my bet number. Yes I know, a loss is a loss regardless of how close it is. Its different for the guys that bet 24 numbers per, you're almost always gonna be next to one of your numbers on a loss, so its not that unusual.

I take note of everything. My 'decent' two number methods that have lasted for MANY MONTHS, I get quite a few misses NEXT to my bet numbers. The 'lousy' two number methods that I end up never playing again, yep, I get FEW misses next to my bet numbers.

Coincidence? I say NO but its only my opinion.

Ken,

Are you tyring to  overtake  Chistian Kaisan, the German  " wheelwatcher"? He has  narrowed it down to  ONE number !

According to Kelly he   and his  son  have been banned  by some  british casinos.

When this cat  bets he  bets  high. His  bankroll is in the hundreds  of thousands of Euros.

Here  find an interview with Kaisan . It`s not in the best  English translation as the  interview was given in German,. :

HAPPY WINNINGS!!!

Honestly.......only a couple numbers guys, perhaps even ONE? Its the way to go. 'F' this 12 or 24 numbers BS.

Ken

What I find funny and inconsistent >> When I get a nice win from a single number, I'll usually take that bet off (for other reasons). Lets say that number hits again back to back. The dealer and some players will say, "you never take off a winning bet". (they say it while mildly laughing)

Lets say that number did NOT hit back to back. How come I then do NOT hear, "that was a smart move taking your chips off that number".


Ken

I agree.I always take my winning units back. The problem on a real table is that for the insidebets you have to wait till the dealer have payed all winning bets.

What's your call on this guys? >> A couple days ago I was playing Auto Roulette at my local casino here. There are only 8 seats and it can take a while to get a spot. This lady next to me, cashes out and takes a NOTE out of her purse (with tape already on it). She tapes it onto the screen......it says 'OUT OF ORDER'.

She needed to use the bathroom (lol). She comes back maybe 8 minutes later, takes the note off and starts playing again. Was this correct to do?

Ken

Now that's funny 

I have seen people put the little cards on the slot machines which I can understand but what difference is her roulette machine to anybody elses. Maybe she even has a 'pet' name for it, lol.

It's a catch 22 situation really,

we all have to answer the call of nature but at the same time very frustrating if your waiting to play.

If the signs are provided by the casino fair enough,

but personally I thinks its wrong that she pulled her own sign out of her purse,

as it was her own and not the casino's If you had ripped it off and sat down and played I think the casino would have been on your side as it was not there sign.

Well thats my view,

Dave.

The second she got up and left i would of ripped it up for sure.

The issue is, her seat would be vacant for maybe a minute. There are only 8 and they get filled FAST.

That your local town auto roulette is always crowded is good news Ken. Why? Because if you are playing alone against the wheel (call it electronic device no matter it has the appearence of a real roulette)  you would be lucky to win IF it is on the " pay bets mood ". When the machine is on the "make money mood" all your bets are bound to be losers.
In this case you are playing against the machine but when all seats or almost all seats are occupied then you are playing against the other gamblers.

I know what im talking because I've got a friend working in one of these little casinos around my place (a touristic area) with a 8 seats MGM Interlock  autoroulette, single 0 as it is in Europe.
My friend jokes about taking its electronic device out of the machine and fix it to a laptop and one could go on playing the game exactly the same.

Controlling wheel speed and/or air force the electronic device can pretty accuratly narrow the hit on a gap of very few pockets dodging this way those inside bets heavily staked. Keeping a low profile should be a must to succeed with this type of roulettes.

Any doubts about what I claim above?

Cheers,
Carlos.
