Roulette can actually have some of the best odds in the casino as well, if played properly. A single green 0 table (what you can easily find still even in Vegas) run at about a 2.7% house edge, these numbers based on betting only either in(numbers in the table, whether it be a quad group, line, or single number bet, etc.) or out (all black, red, etc.).
However, by playing both you can compensate your bet and lower the house edge to a mere 0.8% (blackjack is 0.6%-3%). If you bet eight on all black on roulette along with betting two each on four sets of quad numbers, and place those four bets based on showing the maximum number of reds possible for those, thereby granting the highest amount of numbers on the table of a combination of reds and blacks, you can provide a buffer for your bet. Win the out and lose the in, you're even. Based on US payouts, win the in but lose the out, you've made two dollars. Win them both and win eight on the out, ten on the in based on the six lost.

I'm VERY doubtful. I've never heard of a casino giving an edge to the player over the long-term.
Just ignore those trite comments!
"some video poker machines actually pay out 102% of what you put in.
Very true, it's based on payout points though and you need to make sure to check that before playing. Video poker programming works similarly to slots, with a guaranteed payout percentage of slightly less than 100%. The more people playing machines tied to the same program, the better the odds for the individual, so find the best payouts AND the most crowded machines. Also, higher payout percentages are ALWAYS offered for higher bets, so betting $5 on a max $5 machine will pay a higher percentage than betting $1 on a $5 max machine, something a lot of people aren't aware of and the reason the casino still wins overall. Generally, throughout Vegas in most major hotels you can always find at least one video poker machines that pays out an average of 102% to those playing based on effective strategy. Casino wins based on those who don't understand the most effective hand rules. Answer 5 out of 20 by Repsychler on Jul 24, 2003 at 3:14 pm Permalink
