When gambling roulette, many players rely on superstition and wild
guesses. They bet their sweetheart's birthday or their mom's lucky
number. This strategy ends up with your chips ending up in the
dealer's stack and explains why the casinos are able to afford such
glitzy properties.
There are many different choices of wager for a roulette player to
make. Some are called outside bets. These bets are around the outside
of the board and do not involve selecting a specific number. The most
popular example of an outside bet is wagering whether the number will
be red or black.
Other outside bets include wagers whether the number be odd or even,
or whether it will 1-18 or 19-36. All of these mentioned outside
wagers pay even money. However, the odds are not completely even
because of the presence of the green spaces.
In European roulette there is only one green space. That is for the
number 0. With American roulette, another green space is added and is
called 00. Should you bet any of the above outside bets and a green
comes up, then your bet loses. The only way to win if the number is a
green is to have wagered on that number. You can bet greens alone or a
bet which covers both.
Other outside bets are called "dozen bets". These wagers pay 2 to 1.
An example is betting the number will be 1-12, 13-24, or 25-36. You
can also place a dozen bet vertically down the board capturing on
third of the numbers that way. As with other outside bets, if the ball
lands on a green then all dozen bets lose.
Inside bets are when you place a wager on a specific number, or a
small combination of them. Odds given vary by casino, but a sole
number which hits usually pays 35:1. If you bet a block of four
numbers and one hits, then the payout is usually 8:1 or 9:1.
Many betters just guess which bet to place and how much to make it
for. This is a losing non-strategy. Smarter players devise disciplined
methodologies for both strategy and money management. Knowing which
wager to place and for how much is powerful knowledge.
Unfortunately, many think gambling roulette is as easy as betting your
birthday or anniversary day over and over. This is not the case. Smart
players have discovered there is help. Effective software occasionally
arises allowing the player to have a shot at beating the casino. Smart
gamblers jump on it before the casino sees to it that it is no longer
an option.
