Does anyone have a roulette strategy table handy?

Searching roulette strategy on google hasn't been very helpful. Practically all the results are just fronts for online casino referals.

Every possible bet on a roulette table has the exact same expected value, and they are ALL bad.

If you must play a table game, I suggest craps or blackjack.

Is there any reason why this wouldn't work?

*Always bet on Red

Code:
Bet #1 - $5 if lose, Bet #2 - $10 if lose, Bet #3 - $30 if lose, Bet #4 - $90 if lose, Bet #5 - $270

And just continue making the current bet double that of the accrued losses from all bets prior. Wouldn't you eventually double up if you have a decent bankroll?

I'm not a roulette player, but that strategy has been out there a while.

I do play blackjack once in awhile and I've had 10-12 losing hands in a row, just as I've had 10-12 winners in a row.

The math makes sense on paper, but streaks happen in gambling. Odds don't work well in the short term.

10 bets are 10-20-40-80-160-320-640-1280-2560, at which point you may be over the table limit. Lose 10 spins and you are betting 2K to win 10 dollars.

Best strategy...don't play roulette. Games where you control nothing are for suckers. Stick to the table games.

Next time I head out to Morongo, I'm gonna try it out. Set the cut off at 1k so I don't end up screwing myself over. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

that theory works most of the time...but there is also a good chance of ending up down $405. every game in a casino is chance unless you know how to count multiple decks. by coincidence [no pun intended] i just got back from cache creek today. lol. do sports betting, it is somewhat easy to win if you study it close.
