Answer 1

If it is a real roulette wheel, then I am afraid it is pure chance, and thus there is no way of improving your chances.

However, when dealing with computerised devices (eg Roulette simulation machines), then you can bear in mind that, though the codes are randomly generated (you hope, unless the establishment is a little shady!) that with any computerised response, nothing is fully random. (or at least, it is unlikely to be.)

So, more often than not, with the software, it will be designed to 'look' random, rather than actually being random!

So, where does this leave you? If you are clever, you can play the odds a little with the computerised machine. Eg, if you are betting on colours, and red hasn't shown up for over 5 spins, then chances are, in accordance with the computerised 'random' generator, it will show up soon.

So, you might start by popping a quid on red. Let's say its black. No worries. You then pop £2 on red again. (£1 extra to cover losses.)
Its black again.
So you would then put on £4 (again, to cover losses).
You simply would keep doing this until red came up.
It is a plodding way of doing it, but its as close to a method on the roulette table as you are likely to get!

Still, I wouldn't recommend it. I used to play the online casinos, and did actually win a lot of money, but it is hair-raising, and there is always that horrible possiblity that it all goes terribly wrong!

Answer 3

Some people calculate where approximately the ball will fall on the basis of what the croupier has rolled before, and then bet on the numbers that are after each other on the wheel.

The foolproof technique involves two motion sensors with a wirelss connection to a computer that will calculate the approximation for you.

Answer 4

Putting a couple of cheap bets on a few places at a time usually wins you some cash, first time we played those machines we doubled our money and left with 40 quid,on our table a couple of number even came up 3 times in a row, its just your luck every game is diferent!! all the best!

Answer 5

Pure luck but there are ways of stacking the odds in your favour. Ie there are more black numbers than red. There are more odd numbers than even. So betting on black or odd numbers would increase your chances slightly. There are lots of so-called strategies on the interent but at the end of the day it is a random outcome and each outcome is not in anyway linked to the previous.

Answer 6

One thing I have seen people do in roulette that causes them to lose is to bet on numbers that have not come up in a while. Remember that the wheel has no memory and if it's not calibrated correctly it may hit one number more frequently than another.

Aside from that it's pure luck.

Answer 7

Just your donald duck, its a game of pure chance. Stick to betting black or red as its pretty much 50/50 whether you win or not

Answer 8

there is a system u can use, that i bought off of ebay a few months ago, ik make around 30/50 pounds a day with this strategy but the idea is not to get too gready......

and u only bet small.....and u have to have patients...

888.com is the best one to use it on...

if u want more info you will have to ask me direct cos i wont tell everybody

Answer 9

Betting on one color is not a good strategy, because as you can see in statistics analysis for real spins here http://www.onlinecasinolist.info/roulette/stats/ sequences of 15 or even 20 numbers of one color can occur.
Also i think that good strategy can't be for sale.
I like to use random number distribution deviations when i play roulette. use roulette statistics tools such as free Roulette Analyzer
http://www.onlinecasinolist.info/roulette/analyzer.htm or commercial analogs to detect them.

Answer 10

On any game where the gambler is playing against the house, the house always eventually wins. You are better off playing against other punters (poker for example).
