Is it the glamour of a game that been repeatedly\ndepicted in Hollywood movies, or is it the illustrious history of the five and\na half decade old game?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps it is a mixture of those two, but most likely it\nis the almost instant gratification that the game offers to players. In what\nother casino game can you multiply your cash by 36 in a matter of seconds, with\nno apparent need for skill?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therein lies an important message about roulette, it is a\ngame almost completely devoid of skill that gives complete novices and\nexperienced players almost the exact same chance of success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, the experienced players are likely to have a\nlot more fun while playing since they know how to avoid heavy losses and they\nknow where they\u2019ll find the best facilities, both online and offline. While\nplaying online, players should expect fluent gameplay and a high-quality\nwebsite which stands out from the crowd, and that is exactly what you\u2019ll find\nat 777 Casino. Their whole site is modelled on the famous 1950\u2019s Vegas era, with\na retro theme and plenty of nostalgia, it is unlike anything you\u2019ll find\nelsewhere online, making it a truly unique place to play <a href=\"https:\/\/www.777.com\/casino-games\/roulette\/\">online roulette<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lack of skill required to play the game is one of the reasons that online roulette is hugely popular with new gamblers looking for a fun and laid-back way to gamble. However, it is also the reason that the majority of roulette strategies are useless. In this article we take a look at some of the most commonly used strategies for roulette and debunk them, enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Martingale Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"528\" height=\"353\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png\" alt=\"Huxley roulette wheel with golden turret\" class=\"wp-image-294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png 528w, https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-300x201.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This form of betting strategy first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/articles\/forex\/06\/martingale.asp\">came to prominence in 18<sup>th<\/sup>\ncentury France<\/a>\nand was based primarily on the flipping of a coin. In this scenario there is a\n50\/50 chance of the coin landing on heads or tails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The strategy requires players to double their bet after\nevery losing flip of the coin so that the first win would recover all of the\nprevious losses. This idea has taken hold with roulette as well where players\nwill simply bet on red or black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Problems with The Martingale Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unlimited\nWealth:<\/strong>\nThe basic premise of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/martingale-roulette-strategy\/\">Martingale Strategy<\/a> is that the better has an\nunlimited bankroll with which they can consistently double their bets until\ntheir losses are recovered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem with this strategy is that it does rely on\nthe pure unlimited wealth of the gambler. In 50\/50 scenarios the previous\noutcome has no bearing on future outcomes, meaning a run of 20 reds in a row is\njust as likely as 19 reds and 1 black. Therefore it can be a particularly ruinous\nstrategy for \u2018unlucky\u2019 gamblers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Roulette\nisn\u2019t 50\/50:<\/strong>\nOne of the most common mistakes that players make on the roulette table is that\nthinking there is a straight 50\/50 chance between hitting red, or black.\nHowever, most casino roulette table have red, black, zero and double zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a \u2018zeroless\u2019 roulette table the Martingale Strategy\nmay well come to fruition, but on the most commonly played tables, it quickly\nloses its viability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Martingale Strategy Good or Bad?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s definitely bad, firstly it requires you to bet way more money than you would probably ever feel comfortable with. Secondly, it is based on a 50\/50 outcome which simply does not exist on most modern roulette tables. There is of course the small matter of \u2018maximum bets\u2019 which we have not mentioned, but would needless to say scupper your Martingale Strategy pretty quickly.<strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Why The Martingale Betting System Doesn&#039;t Work\" width=\"860\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ry3B9hJbBfk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>The Martingale System debunked<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Paroli System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This particular strategy is almost the exact opposite of\nthe Martingale Strategy, in that players double their bets after winning rather\nthan after losing. The basic premise of this strategy is that players believe\nwinning follows winning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most will double their bet a maximum of three times after\nwinning before reducing their stakes to the original amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Problems with\nThe Paroli System<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The premise\nis wrong:<\/strong>\nAs mentioned just above, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.countytimes.co.uk\/news\/17537802.using-the-scobes-simple-paroli-system-to-win-at-online-roulette\/\">Paroli System<\/a> relies on the axiom that \u2018winning\nfollows winning\u2019. However, we simply know that to be not true. The outcome of a\nroulette spin is based on chance and probability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A roulette table is not sentient and does not follow\npatterns to satisfy your betting needs, it is completely random. Your chances\nof winning after winning are exactly the same as your chances of losing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It\u2019s a losing\nstrategy:<\/strong>\nThe Martingale Strategy could be said to be defensive, as it works on the idea\nof doubling your bets to make up for your losses. In direct contrast the Paroli\nSystem is offensive to the point of recklessness. It is effectively the act of\nthrowing your winnings away at the earliest possible opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Paroli System, Good or Bad?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is undoubtedly a bad system and even worse than the\nMartingale Strategy. What makes this system worse than Martingale is that it\ntakes away from the buzz of a win by requiring players to immediately throw\ntheir haul away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may win big using the Paroli System, but that is\npurely down to chance and has nothing to do with the system itself. Ultimately,\nif you are to use this technique regularly you will reduce your overall\nwinnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are There Any Winning Roulette Strategies?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"520\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1.png\" alt=\"Group of winning roulette players\" class=\"wp-image-295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1.png 520w, https:\/\/www.vlsroulette.com\/tips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-1-300x201.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With the exception of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roulettephysics.com\">advantage play systems<\/a>, no. Besides advantage play, there are betting patterns that you can follow to limit your losses, but these will also limit your winning potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately most players head to the roulette table with\nthe hope of having fun and hopes of \u2018lucking out\u2019 and winning big. This is the\nreason we love the game and by employing foolhardy strategies we actually take\naway from the love of roulette itself and replace it with an almost guaranteed\nway to lose cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Putting your money on your birthday is just as likely to\nwin you money as betting with any \u2018fool proof\u2019 strategy is. The former is\ncertainly more fun and relaxing so bear that in mind the next time you\u2019re\nencouraged to invest your time and money into a roulette strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The roulette table with its red and black colours and promises of instant riches has been a casino favourite for centuries \u2013 ever since its invention by Blaise Pascal in 1655.
