March 11, 2007

Here at GamblingPhD, we just got finished reading a great book about the casino game of roulette. We want to share some of the interesting things we learned from it with our online gambling fans out there. Whether you playing online or in casinos located on land, this information will definitely show you a different look at how to make more money playing this great casino game. We have all read tons of books ion gambling, online gambling and even tons of book on casinos in general. This book was informative and this is what we want to share with you.

This two part online gambling informational article is aimed at showing our readers something new and exciting about playing roulette.

What�s totally interesting about the book we just read is that it was geared towards sports, but we came up with an ingenious way to parlay the info into great roulette help too. Alas, the book covers casino games as well, but we found all the info helpful in both categories actually,

In the book, there was one special bit of information that really hit home for us. While many diehard roulette players will agree that there just cannot be a new strategy for this game, we will say that there is a new way to look at the game.

Let�s get to the point here, if you are going to play until you have 1. Doubled your money or 2. Lost all your money playing roulette�do you have the best chance of doubling your money all at once? D o you have the best chance by separating your budget into two equal bets? How about 20 wagers? What about more than that?

Well, we have always believed that your best opportunity is in a single bet, because it gives the house edge fewer chances to work against you. Keep listening here, we are not saying to log onto your favorite online gambling site right now to do this�read on�

Really, we do not even recommend that you go out trying to double anything right away. Instaed, take a deep breath and try to enjoy the entertainment of this great online casino game too. Never try to win anything online or offline with the wrong expectations � ever.

Now, just to investigate the concept of bankroll doubling, we found the book to not only agree that your best opportunities come with a single bet, the book truly computes the issues here. So, if you are betting on even money wagers at double zero roulette wheels, like red/black or odd/even, you have eighteen different ways to win the bet and twenty ways that you can lose the wager. For instance, betting red/black, you would win on any of the wheel�s eighteen black numbers, and you would lose your wager on any of the 18 reds � moreover, you would also lose on zero and double zero. So, in this instance, our opportunities of winning are then a precise 18 to 20, which can be reduced to 9 to 10.

If you want to think of this in percentages which many players might prefer � you would simply divide the 9, which is the number of your chances to win, by 19, your chances to win plus your chances to lose. This would compute to 0.4737. So, multiply by 100 to change to an actual percent, and you have a 47.37% chance of doubling your cash with a single bet. Interesting no?
