Re: Roulette is stupid!
[ QUOTE ]
So I was asked a number of weeks ago about what my biggest leak in poker was and without hesitation I said roulette. I love the stupid game and yet I can’t remember the last time I had a winning session. I realize that this is a –ev game just like all the others in the pits but she consistently calls me from afar and more often than not I blow all my profits.
I was playing an ultra juicy $2-$5NL game about a month ago and ended my session up a substantial amount and then proceeded to go on a 23 hour roulette tear. Not only did I lose all my profits but I lost my whole roll. I would imagine someone out there can relate to this but god did I feel horrible. Just by luck I was able to get a room, get an ok’s night sleep and borrow $500 from a friend for a buy in for the next day. I had an unbelievable session and recovered a small portion of my previous nights loses which made me feel a little better.
Over the last month I have little to show from poker despite winning 11 of 13 sessions. Let me also say that my winnings far exceed my losses on any given day. I guess I’m really in a quandary that a lot of people have been in and I really am not sure what to do. I’d play online to stay away from the pits but I’m a fish online plus like a lot of other noobs and nits I have the feeling that it may be fixed. Runner, runner can only happen so many times.
Does anyone have any advice or experience staying away from the pits?

Switch to the Don't Pass line in craps you'll lose a lot slower and throwing the dice once in a while will keep you awake
