To continue your Roulette education, there are two betting strategies or ‘pattern betting’ options offered below.
For a Chart of Roulette Bets and Payouts, see below:

Straight Up—Any numbers, 0 and 00	35 to 1
Column—Any 12 numbers in a  column	2 to 1
Dozen—1st 12, 2nd 12 or 3rd 12	2 to 1

5 Numbers—0, 00, 1, 2 & 3 - Don’t do it!	6 to 1
Double Row—Any 6 numbers in 2 rows	5 to 1

First up, are seven combination bets.

1) Five number strategy involves one bet of a six number combination, then a straight-up bet on four other numbers in order to cover 10 numbers per spin.
These combinations are listed below as the six number single bet, (Column #1)
and 4 numbers for straight up bets, (Column #2):

                #1                                      #2

 

              1-6                             20, 26, 8, 10

 

              4-9                             13, 14, 15, 10

 

            10-15                           16, 17, 18, 28

 

            13-18                           11, 12, 27, 28

 

            19-24                           1, 2, 4, 26

 

            28-33                           00, 22, 24, 35

 

            31-36                           0, 00, 29, 30

 

 

The second option below is more detailed with 12 split bets.

2) Twelve number betting involves 12 split bets straddling two numbers to cover a total of 18 numbers, or half the layout, excluding the zero(s), on each spin.
Each winning bet pays 17-1. You can place your 12 split bets in many different series on the layout, utilizing two twin split wagers on the 3 numbers that run across the layout known as a ‘street’. For example, numbers 1-2-3 are a ‘street’.

If you place a split bet between 1 & 2, and another split bet between 2 & 3, then continue to place split bets on 4 & 5, and 5 & 6, down six streets, you’ve got it.
If you are standing at the bottom of the table looking up from the 34, 35, 36 end, this strategy combination will look like a ladder with six split bets arranged on the table.

Several combinations of this ‘street betting’ are suggested:
Place your 12 bets at the top of the layout to cover numbers 1-18, or choose the bottom of the layout to cover numbers 19-36. 
Or 6 chips at the top of the layout on the numbers 1-9 and bottom 6 chips on the numbers
28-36.   

Or 4 chips in each of the three dozen areas of the layout, like this:
First Dozen=Two split bets on the 4, 5, 6 street and two on the 7, 8, 9 street.
Second Dozen=Two split bets on the 16, 17, 18 street and  two on the 19, 20, 21 street.
Third Dozen=Two split bets on the 28, 29, 30 street and two on the 31, 32, 33 street. 
Keep in mind that you should recognize consistency when placing these 12 bets.
 
With these and previous Roulette strategies, you are now well on your way to spinning profits.
