Question Casinos - how is your luck?

Went to Casino last night and walked out 65% up. My friends were also all up on the house last night. Have only been 2 previous times and again I was up on the house by 50% and 200%.

Play roulette on the outside mainly.

Just lucky?

House always wins?

What are your experiences?

i believe in beginners luck, and when you get too used to it, all luck is gone,

btw, (in my late teens when i first got in one, my winnings were around £100 + from £20 stake, took a total of £800+ after a month, used that as deposit on my first car.)

never won any after that.

Its all about how long you play for if you play red or black odds/evens and double your bet every time then its easy to have good results untill 8-10 of the same comes up in a row at which point you get screwd for every penny you have.

Correct.

There is no (legal) system currently in existence which can beat roulette over an infinite period.

Just walk away when you're up and when your winning streak comes to an end.

I tend to double-up on losing bets on the outside (as far as finances permit).

I think house advantage falls to 1.?% on the outside if they play the rule whereas you get half your stake back on Zero.

If i recall the odds for winning on roulette on a plain red and black table, are very high in the players favour...


but as soon as you introduce the green 0 the odds rise to phenominal amounts against the player


the house allways wins...

scoobyvirgin: Not bad at all

Mart: Wouldnt call it 'phenominal'. Chances are only 18/19 in the favour of the house. Also bear in mind that some pay back half the stake on Zero.

You wont get those odds on a Bandit.
