    Wesley Snipes says, "Always bet on black." But then again, Wesley Snipes' money did not come from a roulette wheel.

    The problem with roulette is those pesky little green spaces, 0 and 00. Those two spots are what gives the house its advantage, and they do end up being a pretty large vig for the house. Unlike blackjack where you can use skill and betting strategy to improve your lot, I know of no (non-cheating) way of improving the odds in roulette.

    One strategy I've heard of is to make a 2 for 1 bet (Odd/Even or Red/Black) and start at $1. If you lose, double your previous wager to $2, then 4, 8, 16, 32, and so on. When you win, you'll win a whole buck! Keep doing this for hours on end, and eventually you'll (allegedly) eek out some sort of profit. The major pitfall to this is, if you have a bad streak, you'll be wagering hundreds of dollars to win $1, and if your losing streak outlasts your bankroll, you're toast. I personally do not recommend this strategy or roulette at all.

    • Besides which the house limits the number of times you can go double or nothing, since you are sure to win eventually with that strategy.
