About Time: Roulette Strategies Used to Maximise GainsBy Angelica Malin

Roulette is one of the most famous casino games in the world. Featured in the James Bond film franchise there are few people in the world that have never come across it before. This is for good reason. Roulette is exciting as players watch with bated breath for the number the ball will land on. What are the best strategies to win in different types of online roulette Let’s find out.

Martingale Strategy

This strategy involves betting against a single colour for the entire session and doubling losing bets. This will recover your losses and give you a small profit. The strategy relies on low minimum bets and high maximum bets. A reversal of this will make it impossible for you to recover your losses rendering the strategy useless.

To maximise profits keep bets as low as possible. If you win put the winnings to one side and bet low again. You are now making a profit and working the table.

Reverse Martingale Roulette

You require a love of risk for the Reverse Martingale roulette strategy since it  involves betting against the same colour for the duration of the session. Your initial bet is low so a low minimum table bet and a high maximum bet is required.

If you win double the bet. Keep doubling until you lose and then start again with a low minimum bet. The trick is to identify when you have a winning streak and withdraw your winnings before the inevitable loss hits.

This is obviously a risky strategy but if you can time the winning streaks correctly and bet low again you can make sizable profits.

D’Alembert Roulette Strategy

If you want a less anarchistic strategy, consider the D’Alembert roulette strategy. It involves increasing and decreasing bets by 1 depending on whether you are winning and losing. Once again choose a single colour and increase your bet by one if you lose and decrease it by one if you win.

To maximise this strategy it is important you quit the game when you’ve had an equal number of wins and losses. At this point, you will have made a small profit. So, it is important you keep track of your wins and losses.

The James Bond

The James Bond strategy was created by 007 creator Ian Flemming who described it as foolproof and if used correctly would get you the price of a good dinner. It involves having at least £200 to wager.

The steps involved are as the following:

• Place £140 on the high numbers (19-36).
• Bet £50 on the numbers 13 – 18.
• Place £10 on 0 for insurance.

If the ball lands on the numbers 1-12 it is game over. Any other number it is a win.

• Ball lands in 19-36 you win £80.
• Ball lands in 13-18 you win £100.
• Ball lands in 0 you win £160.

Hopefully, you won’t be shaken or stirred but rich when you use the strategy.

With online gambling accounting for a third of all gambling profits in the UK in 2016, games like roulette are more popular than ever. You should experiment with these strategies to see which one works best for you .
