Default The basis for a perfect roulette system

Hello everyone!
I know it's impossible to find a system that will always win, but here is an idea of a system that actually might be fruitfull. Hope someone has enough time and patience to implement it.
First of all, there is one argument against those who believe that the house advantage cannot be overcome - house advantage relates to the NUMBER OF WINNING SPINS HOUSE HAS OVER THE PLAYER, and not the money you put in a game. This means that the house wins approximatelly 52.5 times in a 100 spins series, while the player has 47.5 wins. If player wins 1.5 chip each time, and loses 1 chip when the house wins, who's ahead?
That is one thing! The other relates to odds. It is very common opinion that each spin represents an isolated event, and each time you bet on red you have around 47.5% of chance for winning. However, what is the probability of the tenth red in a row? It is actually simple to calculate:
0.475x0.475x0.475x0.475 (and so on... 10 times...)=0.0007 (0.07%). This probability is rather low, but it's not impossible.
Ok, now back to the system proposal. As you probably know by now, it is very rare (if not impossible) to have a streak of more than 25 different numbers. Hence the system basis - simply follow last numbers that came out, and sooner or later you'll hit a winner.
let's here what you have to say about it...

I have a far better solution. Don't play. I should come out ahead vs. your strategy after a million of rolls.

Maybe you should and maybe not. Do you play some other game then? How about a million poker hands? do you know of anyone actually playing million rolls?

Casino games are an exploitation of those who don't understand mathematics and more precisely probability and expectation. True there are plenty of people who really don't care about the money and are there to have fun and hopefully buck the odds and win a few bucks.

When you understand math, you'll understand a fair roulette wheel can't be beat - no matter what system you employ. Talking about infinite bankrolls, no table limit, and instantly playing an infinite number of spins are all not realistic.

BTW - poker is not a casino game. Casino games are those where the house participates in the wager and has a built in edge on the outcome. In poker the casino takes a rake or drop from the pot ... you never lose a hand in poker to the casino, you lose to another poker player.

First of all, this statement is rather naive. How silly would it be for me to write the following sentence:

"Movies are an exploitation of those who don't understand EV."

Sure, the movie might be -EV, but so what? There's more to life than money.

As a member of the blackjack team chronicled in "Bringing Down the House", I think I am qualified to say that in fact, most casino games are beatable in completely legal ways. To name a few, there's blackjack, craps, baccarat, and yes, even roulette.

Of course, you don't beat these games with simple systems... you beat them with hour upon hour of practice.

good luck.

I only read your subject and not the content of your post, but here's what I'm guessing your basis is:

1) An infinite bankroll
2) A casino with no table limits
3) A roulette game that plays games infinitely fast
4) a hell of a lot of marijuana

Actually no (except maybe the last item). You have 12 streets on a roulette table, plus the 0. What is the probability of hitting 10 streets and a 0 in a row (the sequence would be like 0,2,5,8,11,14,17,20 etc...). Hope you got the picture. You can narrow this to sixlines, or eventually broaden up to squads or even splits. I'm not saying it's impossible to lose this way, but certainly you can find the satisfying win/loss ratio somewhere in the middle. Plus - this is just an idea people!!!

Thorpe found the only way know to beat roulette aroud the same time he found the only realistic way to beat black jack (and still the basis for any way to beat blackjack)
