Dalin, a good quick call, indicates insight and a quick perceptive mind, yet things are not what they seem to be on and below that which seems obvious. Wrong odds on odd and even numbers. Would love to get 2-1 on even money chance (less .0526%). However, payoff is correct. In addition,odds listed as 36-1 on payoff of single number, while actual payoff is correctly and unfairly, at 35-1. "Sig's Wheel" definitely biased towards odd numbers, but not exclusive to odd numbers alone! (Thought I'd inform you of that tidbit in case you are tempted to continue parlaying your bankroll!) Moral of story: Even in a positive expectation game one must preserve one's principal! Regards, QT
