The roulette table attracts the largest number of players attempting to apply a betting system. The most prominent progressive betting system is the Martingale system, in which you double your bet after each loss. Another popular one is the Reverse Martingale, in which you cut your bet in half after each win. (Check out Chapter 3 for more about different wagering systems.)
I don’t recommend using any progressive betting system, because a streak of four or five bad spins can cripple your bankroll in less than ten minutes.
Despite all the systems advertised for sale, no magic bullet can help you beat a roulette wheel. Books on roulette systems are scams to separate you from your money. Why does someone want to share her amazing supersecret strat¬egy with you? If you’d written such a system, wouldn’t you prefer to just make a quick fortune, buy a small island, and retire? So beware of roulette pros. They make money by selling books, not by divulging a consistently winning roulette system.
