ot No 'system' in roulette will ever win over long haul for the simple reason that there are 38 numbers (this includes U.S. style: zero and double zero) but the payout is only 35-1. Since it should be 38-1 you are forever battling a house edge of 5.26%. No system of any kind will solve this problem. But you have already figured that one out ;-) You were using system ref. below. Casino will always limit max bet to solve problem of very deep pocket player. RO Professional Roulette Play From The Past / System 1 greatgamblingsystems.com Probably one of the earliest documented Roulette Professionals is Charles de'ville, who in the early 1890's successfully used a system called "The Martingale" In theory, this Casino strategy can't fail to make a profit and involves gambling on the "even money" chances at Roulette, which are by far the best value bets at the table. The European Roulette Wheel has 37 slots: 1 to 36 coloured red or black and zero, which is green. This gives us three separate areas of even money gambling to concentrate on as follows: Red or Black 18 Chances Even Money Gambling High or Low 18 Chances Even Money Gambling Even or Odd 18 Chances Even Money Gambling With this Roulette Strategy, each time you place a bet on an even-money chance. If you win, you double your money. If you lose, you simply double your stake next time and so on until you gain a win. The plus side to this Roulette System is that with deep pockets, you can theoretically win all of the time as it would be an impossibility for a Casino Roulette table to fall on say "Red" all night. The down side to this Roulette Strategy is that your stakes accumulate quickly when a losing run develops. As you can work out, a losing run of six will cost 63 units in the pursuit of a one-unit gain. However, the probability of this happening is 64 to one. Before using this system, some people also like to wait until the Casino Roulette table has a run of say three or more on Red or Evens before doubling up on the other side. If your lucks in, and over short periods of gambling, you can certainly win with this casino system but for the more cautious of players we recommend that you review the system to follow.
