The Roulette-gods had a laugh at me...

Wow. . .  Just have to get this off me

I have been working on a system for a few weeks and its been working like a charm for me.  Up today I have withdrawn 9300 units (930€) and left 2000 units (200€) as a bankroll to play with.  Anyways, as it worked this well I was full of confidence yesterday when I sat down to play. 

The system is based on playing just the zero on a RNG that I trust using a slow progression (at least in the beginning).  The reason I am confident in this is that the stats from the RNG shows that every 500 spins the hitrate on the zero is between 2% and 4%.  Also, the longest I seen the zero sleep on this RNG is about 200 spins.

So sat down to play.  Bankroll was about 400€ (4000 units) playing the following progression (There is actually a safer progression
but I felt like gambling yesterday;)):

35 x 1 units
17 x 2 units
11 x 3 units
8 x 4 units
7 x 5 units
6 x 6 unit
5 x 7 units
4 x 8 units
3 x 9 units
3 x 10 units

19 x 20 units
12 x 30 units
9 x 40 units
7 x 50 units
6 x 60 units
5 x 70 units
4 x 80 units
3 x 90 units

14 x 100 units

The progression has worked fine for me so far.  Usually I dont get past the first stage (Where 3 x 10 units is the last bet).  Sometimes
I need to push it to 12 x 30 units.  But yesterday I thought I was screwed.  Until it finally hit.  I was down 4079 units, played a total
of 174 spins with less than 400 units left on my bankroll (that would be 3 spins).  Decided to go a few more spins on the 100 unit
bets in order to try to recover some more and a second zero showed up.  Withdrew 400€ right away and now I am back to thinking. . .

Anywayrs.  The Roulette-gods had a laugh at me and I am happy that I didn't blew my entire bankroll on this session from hell.

Anyone else had this kind of near-(bankroll)death-experiences?

Best Regards

Did you know that if you play a progression system (whatever it is) with a bankroll of X amount, your session win-target being doubling your bankroll and your session stop-loss being losing your entire bankroll (not quitting until either the win target or stop loss is reached), and then noting your winning/losing sessions (e.g. nolinksLwwLLwLwLL), your long-term results would be no different from flat betting on an EC using that X amount as your unit.

Try it and see.

All roulette bets can be reduced to one simple bet: Flat-betting on an EC.

Are you saying roulette is impossible to be beaten?

[Noble Savage]

Are you saying roulette is impossible to be beaten?

Yes (unless I see proof of otherwise, which won't happen).

That's different from saying no one IS winning within a limited time-frame, I'm not saying that.

Pick 1000 people, give them a huge progression and ask them to play it every weekend. Come back after, say, 7 years and see how they're doing. You'll probably find that a few of them (2, 3?) are still winning. The progression in itself is no holy grail, but to them at that point it is. There is nothing mathematically impossible about such rare occurrences. These are the "Kens" of progression play.

Take someone like Ken, if he teaches his system to a bunch of people will they be making a living off it? Of course not, it will eventually fail for most (if not all) of them, because the betselection+progression itself is no holy grail (it's nonsense actually).

Noble Savage, I appreciate most of your post, and I think you're a great members of Vls...
But now I must ask this: If you think it is impossible to beat roulette what are you doing here?

Please don't interpret me wrong
No hard feelings mate

The system is based on playing just the zero on a RNG that I trust using a slow progression (at least in the beginning).  The reason I am confident in this is that the stats from the RNG shows that every 500 spins the hitrate on the zero is between 2% and 4%.  Also, the longest I seen the zero sleep on this RNG is about 200 spins.

If you use the same number, zero, progression after progression, then it will finely hit the pattern that will kill it. Try shifting to a random number selected for each progression attempted. In fact, try shifting to a very active number. It would be truly rare to select the next long sleeper as you begin a new progression run. Still, you are going to do that from time to time. So do you win enough to take the occasional loss?

Now try to translate that single number activity, progression, & effectiveness into a simpler larger group of numbers that change after each progression. You will win more often. Everything balances out, just like Noble Savage suggests.

Here is an idea. Take the top 10 numbers from the marquee right after your last win and come up with a progression about the size of your bankroll. I've seen the same dozen sleep for 33 spins once. So ten numbers might sleep up to 40 spins. But to randomly select the next 10 numbers from the last ten spins to fifteen spins  for a one time try is completely different.

RNG roulette can be beaten with cool head, a bankroll of atleast 1000 units, patience and strategy.  You have to work hard, keep your target low (not to be greedy) and come out of the game after small winnings or loss.  Never play martingale.
I can prove it.

Now, here's the fellow I've been waiting for.  SMACK!!  (My old English grammar teacher just smacked me!)

Ahem!  Now, here's the fellow for whom I've been waiting.

Prove away, 'Ol Bean!

So then, its a club here?  Kind of like hanging out? Ken

I met a few people here who share the same interest in the game as I.

Obviously I'm not here for finding/sharing systems. Only for some discussions with real regular players. We likely won't always agree but so what? imo no grown up will run away crying. You may say something that can make me think. The 'thinking' may lead to creating or modifying something in my play.

Thats the reason I'm on forums. Also, writing posts makes me think about what I'm doing, and I can learn from that too.

Good answers, I was only wondering.  Ken
