Ghost of Clough Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 I have stopped mate. Not all of it was roulette though. There was £100 out of that made from football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 If you're not doubling up every losing bet then it's not the martingale system, so the argument is pointless. If the martingale system is just a double up of everytime then I guess I'm not using that and that that was pretty pointless.. You're right.. A double up everytime is a stupid way to go But anyone who loses their first bet i going to chasing money.. Anyone who is in the red for gambling is only trying to win money previously lost.. But I don't have a problem with gambling at all, I enjoy doing it, and I don't mind throwing away 200 quid a year or something doing so.. I don't drink, smoke or waste my money on prostitutes so I've got to get my thrill from somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 If it's at roulette, stop now and keep your winnings, cos they'll all be given back if you carry on. I play roulette when I'm on holiday and the missus plays slots. The best way (IMO) to go into a casino is to only take with you the amount that you are prepared to lose. My own limit now is £100, and I rigidly stick to that and won't even carry a cash card or credit card with me when I'm going to the casino. If I lose, then that's me done for the night. If I win, the next night I still make sure that I only take £100 with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 That's similar to what I do, except I do it online rather than in an actual casino. noooooooo! Stay away from the online sites. How can you it be sure the program is not rigged? You get a programmer like Daveo behind it and it'll take the shirt off yer back! At least you can see a ball going around a wheel if you're stood in front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reprucussions would be so, so huge if they got caught, when they've got a big enough edge purely with the game itself to make a mint. Obviously, if you're trolling, fair play, i took the bait, well played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyVegas have a reliable online service and they use IGT programming for their casino games. IGT are a very reliable company. Even real wheels can easily be rigged. Despite a real wheel not being rigged, you can often see more 'unrealistic' results on a real roulette table than on an online one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Any wheel, real or virtual, can be rigged. However, every single spin is logged to a secure server, the random number generator algorithm is available to representatives of the Gambling commission and so on. You can rig - but you can't hide the fact that you have rigged. I caught an in-house tester embezzling a system a few years ago. It was a 'cashless' system involving a tito (ticket in, ticket out) based gaming platform in association with in-house ATMs. I won't give details of the scam for obvious reasons, but what the tester didn't realise was the fact that there were two monitoring systems in place - he was only aware of one.

The odds against that happening are around 3 billion to 1. At the end of the day, getting 7 19's in a row is just as likely as getting 5 28 19 35 32 0 then a 30 in a sequence. It's just that you recognise the pattern of having a certain number so many times in a row or getting the colour several times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that you recognise the pattern of having a certain number so many times in a row or getting the colour several times Of course it is if you were attempting to predict the sequence of numbers. What made it newsworthy was the fact that it was the same number each time, there was a pretty picture accompanying the article and it wasn't 5, 28, 19, 35, 32, 0, 30. I appreciate that the odds of the seventh 19 was still only 36-1, and as far as that spin was concerned, everything that had occurred in the past was irrelevant. I don't recall ever having personally witnessed the same number four times in succession, but I might be wrong. The only interest from a personal perspective was that I specified and tested software identifying 'hot' and 'cold' numbers for in-house display.
