Roulette is a popular table game played in many casinos that involves a spinning wheel and a small ball. The object of the game is for the player to guess when the ball is going to land on the spinning wheel once the ball has lost its momentum and dropped. The wheel has odd and even numbers as well as red and black colours to mark potential places the ball can land. In addition, there is also a green slot that the ball can fall into. There are two versions of roulette. One of these versions is the European or French version of the game. This version of the game has a total of thirty seven possible slots that the ball can fall into. The other version of the game is American roulette. In the American version there are thirty eight slots in which the ball can land.
The house edge for these two versions of roulette is different because of the different number of pockets in American and European roulette. The house edge in American roulette is five point two six percent. The house edge in European roulette is two point seven percent. The player must consider this when working out the optimal roulette system for their time at the wheel.
D’Alembert System
This system, which is also known as the montant et demontant, is a type of pyramid system of betting. This roulette system is based on the mathematics behind roulette and was named after the man who came up with the theory. When applying this roulette system, most players use outside bets with even money. It favours players who do not want to risk a lot of money while at the table. This also means that, in any given spin of the wheel, the player will not win a large sum.
The way the betting progresses is quite straight forward. If the player loses, they will then add one unit of betting to their next bet. For example, if a player bets ten dollars and lost on a single bet, the next bet they make will instead be for eleven dollars. If the player wins, they will take a unit away from their next bet. For example, if a player bets ten dollars and wins, the next bet they make will be nine dollars.
Dozen Bet System
When utilising this system, players use either double dozen bets or single dozen bets. When using the single version, players a progressive and incremental betting list that starts at the minimum bet that the casino allows. They then follow that progression to the maximum amount that the casino allows on a single bet. The idea is that the player will use this bet line and win before their list ends.
In the bet system that utilises the double dozen bet, the player will use two dozen bets and this system’s stake list is half as long as that of the single dozen system.
In addition to these two systems, there are many additional betting systems that the player can utilise to play roulette online. Some of these systems work the best for certain types of gambling styles, so it’s worth finding the roulette system that will work the best for you.
