  • what if the same colour show ups 10 ten times?

  • @bigpoppaverosgeorge

    Then you better have a very big bank roll and a huge table limit. In reality you just lose .....a lot

  • Nice video! Check out my winning roulette tips too - RouletteGuySecret (dot) com

  • @TheRouletteGuySecret

    No thanks mate........if I had a real roulette secret I wouldn't tell anyone !!!

  • @dottslash You say: "there is a 5% chance of getting 4 reds in a row and that's why I'm betting on black"

    ie there is, using this reasoning, a 95% chance of black showing up after 3 reds. Do you believe that? Of course not. For each iteration, the probability of black = probability of white = 18/37 ~ 49%. This remains true even if the same color has appeared in the previous 1,000 iterations. The ball does not have a memory. The casino "even money" bet limit is saving you from yourself.

  • @BRowe99

    Absolutely I agree 100% with you and perhaps I didn't explain myself very well. I was referring to the expected probability of an event occurring exactly a number of times - i.e 5% chance of getting 4 reds in a row before any spin. I was just trying to illustrate the gamblers fallacy which lies at the behind the Martingale and the likely results (i.e. you lose) - you are of course right that after each spin the probability is 18/37 and each spin is completely independent.

  • @bigpoppaverosgeorge was at ac last night and black won more than ten times in a row

  • started your martingale bet to high, you should have started at 1 dollar, its a small profit but easy way to build a bankroll

  • i was thinking of going to bet £10.00 for a laugh just putting down £0.10 and doubling it if i lost, do you guys think i should bother?

  • @samljer "there is a mathematical formula to show it cannot stay red forever."

    No, there isn't.

  • @Liimilendur If you believe that a sequence of, say, 8 reds, makes it likely that a black will show up at the next spin of the wheel, why are you not in a casino right now waiting for such a sequence? Why are you wasting time (and thus money) arguing here in YouTube?

  • @Liimilendur Your comment demonstrates the fundamental confusion at the heart of the Gambler's Fallacy. In roulette you bet on the next play of the wheel, not on sequences of a particular color. A series of, say, 10 reds is unlikely (though not impossible) precisely *because* the probability of red for any particular play is ~ 49%. But a series of reds does not affect the outcome of the next iteration. How could it, unless the ball had a memory?

  • @BRowe99 you idiot, if it really would be like that, the odds of getting 150 reds in a row would also be 49%, but statistics show it isn't. Of course you can view each spin as a different event, but we are not interested in different events we are interested in the outcome. If you roll a dice and get the side with the 6 points for 50 times in a row then let's talk.

  • @2bornot2b1984 Agreed, but not only that, flipping coins without using martingale would also cause you to break even. Using martingale offers no mathematical advantage than placing bets at random. It is a DANGEROUS thing to use and I don't know why so many people believe in it still today :D

  • Look at it this way. With the martingale system, if you were flipping a coin, you would break even over your lifetime of flips.

    So breaking even isn't worth spending a lifetime to do something. You make more money, more consistently by getting a job.

    But it is actually not 50/50, because a roulette wheel has either 1 or 2 green squares depending on what country you are in.

    So the green squares ensure that you won't break even, but rather, will slowly lose a small percentage of your money.

  • If the chances where really 5 percent u must bet all ur money on 95 percent odds since u get a significant EV. Unfortunately this is not true :)
