Roulette is an amazingly popular form of gambling, but it is not
talked about often. Despite showing up in casinos, Catholic fund
raisers, and even online, there is little out there about the do's and
don't's about roulette gambling compared to other casino attractions.
Here, though, is a little bit you can take with you to that next
Catholic fund raiser or trip to Vegas.
First of all, it is important to remember that each roulette spin
carries its own set of odds. There is no correlation to future or past
spins of the wheel. Many people believe that if, for instance, the
ball lands black 3 times in a row, that the red is due. That is not
statistically true. The truth is that the odds are precisely the same
on each individual spin. It is not unlike flipping a coin: each time
you flip a coin there is a one in two chance that you will get heads.
That stays the same no matter how many heads you have flipped.
The best advice is to know the game you are playing since roulette
offers so many options. For instance, try playing a European roulette
wheel whenever possible. Your odds are double on a European wheel as
they are on an American one, however; they are still in the casino's
favor, of course. Obviously, European roulette wheels are not all that
common in the United States, but it is helpful to know that if you do
encounter a choice between the two that your odds are slightly better
with the European wheel....
