Roulette

Believe it or not, craps is not the only game in the casino. Savvy players have a back-up plan for when their craps game is off. If Heavy isn't winning at Craps you're likely to find him playing Baccarat, Blackjack, or even Roulette. If the table games aren't working out he may even take a cigar break in the high limit slot area for a little hit-and-run action. But just like craps - you have to plan your play and play your plan. If you have a question on slots, video poker, carnival games or any table games other than craps, this is the place to post. Let's hear about the games you play when you're not playing craps! What's your game? What's your strategy? How's that working out for you? Inquiring minds want to know!

(I made this in Photoshop. Feel free to copy it and us it.)

I like playing the Action Numbers. I always keep a Crib Sheet with me in my note pad in case I forget which numbers I need to play.
You put 3 units on the 1-4 double street, 3 units on the 10-13 double street, 2 units on quad numbers 17,18,20 and 21, and put 3 units on the 28-31 double street. This covers the numbers evenly all around the wheel, and is a decent way to play the game.

The other play I use is the; "1st dozen and second dozen" equal amounts on both.

Thanks for this Bill. I always forget what the Patrick play is, but it is a good way to play the game.

11 units at risk per spin.

- The double street hits pay 5 to 1, or 15 units for a net of +4 units
- The quad hits pay 8 to 1, or 16 units for a net of +5 units

On each spin, 22 of the 38 numbers are covered, or 57.9%

My son is a fan of the 2 dozen play although I think he'll choose the 2 dozen bets based on past spin results rather that always playing the same ones.

Not a big player of roulette, but it seems to me if a player played two columns..the 2-1 bet at the bottom, you'd have better odds. $10 on column 1 and 2..Taking the zeros into account you still have over a 60% chance of winning. No? It's a slow grind for sure, but you could martingale it.

Heavy has a play that involves using the column bets along with either a red or black bet.

I don't view Roulette as any more than a diversion from craps and an opportunity to get off your feet for a bit. A grind play is exactly what I would be looking for.
