Roulette Rules & Strategies -Part 2
By Gayle Mitchell
I believe that Roulette strategies or ‘betting patterns’ are mandatory for profit in this game.
These strategies also provide a built-in wager management plan in that with consistent betting, you can manage and ‘keep an eye’ on your gambling bankroll.
Two betting strategies are provided below, but first, a short review. Single zero roulette is, of course, the much better bet with a lower casino or house advantage.
The 5.26% percentage casino (pc) is calculated based on the single number bet that pays only 35-1, instead of the full pay 37-1; thus, $2 short. Therefore, $2 divided by 38 = 5.26%.
Single zero is $1 short, therefore $1 divided by 38=2.63%. Outside bets are placed in the boxes and columns on the outer areas of the layout.
Inside bets are placed directly on a number or on a line between numbers, known as streets. Stay away from the five number bet of 0, 00, 1, 2, 3 with a house edge of 7.89%--don’t do it!
A Chart of Roulette Bets and Payouts is provided below.

The two betting systems, as mentioned are:
1) Dozen/Column Betting Strategy: If you place four bets, 2 Dozen, and 2 Column, you will cover all numbers except 4 inside and the double (or single) zeros, therefore, 32 numbers.
Some numbers are covered twice and all wins pay 2-1.
Example: 1-12 can be the first dozen and 13-24, the second dozen. Also, 2nd column, under #35 and 4th bet can be 3rd column, under #36 for two column bets.
You can mix and match by betting the third dozen bet, and first column bet under #34.
Keep in mind that you always bet 2 dozens and 2 columns on each spin.
2) Nine number betting combination strategy involves 9 split bets straddling two numbers to cover a total of 18 numbers for each spin.
Split each bet as follows:
1 & 4, 2 & 5, 3 & 6, 11 & 12, 26 & 27, 25 & 28, 31 & 34, 32 & 35 and 33 & 36.
Until we meet again, enjoy your spin to win experience!
