I have been thinking about this lately 

It really strikes me that positive progressions are the way to go.

Let's say that you bet 6 splits x $10 = $60.

You win and get back $180. That's a profit of $120.

Now here is the good part. You can increase your bet on the next spin and STILL keep some of the winnings from the previous bet!

So you could now go 6 splits x $15 = $90.

You win and get back $270. That's a profit of $180 plus the $120 you made on the last spin.

If you happened to lose that last bet.....

You are still in front over the 2 bets to the tune of $30.

Maybe the trick to playing positive progressions is the way I have mentioned above making sure you at least guarantee yourself some profit even if you lose the 2nd bet. (of course you would just stay at the base level should you lose the first bet)

I understand that you couldn't do it with even money bets and you are not always going to get long winning runs betting dozens but I have seen plenty of 2 dozen negative progression methods bust to know which one I would personally prefer to play.

I was thinking about our struggles to beat roulette and wondered what other people would make of our almost obsessive fascination with the game....

....Then I watched this and it's kind of ironic.

These 2 guys live in the middle of nowhere (uttoxeter) and are managing a health centre and yet you would think they are in charge of the bank of england.

It's hillarious.

 "If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe." -Nikola Tesla

I discovered something about the numbers 3 6 9 when I was working on system9 earlier this year. I will share it on this thread.

What I will say is that it is the most 'freaky' thing that I have ever witnessed when playing this game.

It will take a bit of explaining and I will start in the morning when I have a clear head. (It is about 1.00am here now)

He was at war with them
and they killed him before he could kill them

The Secret Service stood down.

Dallas and Texas law enforcement stood down.

Military intelligence, which is normally enrolled to provide presidential security, stood down.

The FBI stood down.

These elements opened the door to the assassination, but did not have the resources to deliver the shooters and the complicated cover story and witness elimination program that followed.

Corrupt elements of the CIA and their long term friends and colleagues in organized crime did.

And they did it because their very survival was at stake.

After decades of non-investigation by the epically corrupt Herbert Hoover, Robert Kennedy - the president's brother and Attorney General - was going after organized crime full force.

JFK was going after the criminal elements that had taken over the CIA.

Neither of the Kennedy brothers were choir boys, but this was a heroic effort on their parts and done for the good of the country. Had they succeeded, they would have averted many of the catastrophes that have befallen the US - and other countries (many hundreds of millions of people) - in the last 49 years

The Kennedy brothers knew the risks involved in their operations and what they attempted required great moral and physical courage, the likes of which have rarely been seen in the history of this country.

It's noteworthy that this story, one of the most important in post-war 20th century history, has been completely erased from the public mind.

I don't believe in a lot of the conspiracy theories that are thrown around on the internet but this was a sad day for America and the rest of the world at large.

I was just thinking of ways how we could be self sustaining without the need for ads and did come up with an idea which may work.

How about a roulette book library.

I have a lot of roulette books that I don't read anymore. I am sure there are a few of us like that.

How about donating them to the forum and setting up a bookshop.

The books could maybe be sold for £5.00 each + postage. This would be much cheaper than buying them new.

Let's see if we can come up with some good ideas.

This is something that I was working on a few months ago.
It is not 100% mechanical and you have to wing it a bit. The results can be pretty good.
It is based on Dozens/Columns.
You need to record the results in pairs.
I will start with the dozens first.
1,1 = 1.
1,2 = 2.
1,3 = 3.
2,1 = 4.
2,2 = 5.
2,3 = 6.
3,1 = 7.
3,2 = 8.
3,3 = 9.
Now the columns.
A,A = 1.
A,B = 2.
A,C = 3.
B,A = 4.
B,B = 5.
B,C = 6.
C,A = 7.
C,B = 8.
C,C = 9.
I just downloaded some numbers from random.org and will give a quick example.
I will show what I mean with a single stream using dozens.
27) 3
28) 3 = 9
04) 1
21) 2 = 2
31) 3
19) 2 = 8
14) 2
33) 3 = 6
33) 3
03) 1 = 7
34) 3
29) 3 = 9
26) 3
12) 1 = 7
01) 1
22) 2 = 2
33) 3
22) 2 = 8
So you are probably scratching your head and wondering what's so good about that.
You need to pay particular attention to groups 2,4,7,8.
The 2 means the 1st dozen has went to the 2nd dozen.
The 4 means the 2nd dozen has went to the 1st dozen.
The 7 means the 3rd dozen has went to the 1st dozen.
The 8 means the 3rd dozen has went to the 2nd dozen.
These groups of 2,4,7,8 work excactly the same with the columns.
The 2 means the 1st column has went to the 2nd column.
The 4 means the 2nd column has went to the 1st column.
The 7 means the 3rd column has went to the 1st column.
The 8 means the 3rd column has went to the 2nd column.
What I have found is these groups of 2,4,7,8 can really clump together.
What I do is run 4 streams of data with the dozens and columns.
Let me show you how I would now turn the dozens above into 2 streams.
　
27) 3
28) 3 = 9
04) 1      = 7
21) 2 = 2
31) 3      = 6
19) 2 = 8
14) 2      = 5
33) 3 = 6
33) 3      = 9
03) 1 = 7
34) 3      = 3
29) 3 = 9
26) 3      = 9
12) 1 = 7
01) 1      = 1
22) 2 = 2
33) 3      = 6
22) 2 = 8
You can see how the 2,4,7,8 groups clumped nicely in the first stream.(6 hits in 8 groups)
They hardly said boo in the second stream.
I do excactly the same for the columns and that's what gives me 4 separate streams.
27) C
28) A = 7
04) A      = 1
21) C = 3
31) A      = 7
19) A = 1
14) B      = 2
33) C = 6
33) C      = 9
03) C = 9
34) A      = 7
29) B = 2
26) B      = 5
12) C = 6
01) A      = 7
22) A = 1
33) C      = 3
22) A = 7
The first stream did not produce much.
The second stream produced 4 hits in 6 groups.
There is nearly always one of these streams firing away with a nice steady run of 2,4,7,8.
The 2 and 4 are the best for actual betting because you are only placing one chip.
The 2 means you would be betting for the second result of the group to be either the 2nd dozen or 2nd column.
This obviously depends which one you are playing at the time.
The 4 means you would be betting for the second result of the group to be either the 1st dozen or 1st column.
The 7 means you would be betting for the second result of the group to be either the 1st dozen or 1st column.
The 8 means you would be betting for the second result of the group to be either the 2nd dozen or 2nd column.
Now obviously you would know what to bet for the second result because of what comes out in the first result of a group.
Let's say the 2,4,7,8 groups are clumping in the dozens and you want to bet.
The first result of the next group is the 1st dozen. Well you can only win on a 2. So you would back the 2nd dozen.
Let's say the first result of the next group is the 2nd dozen. You can only win on a 4. So you would back the 1st dozen.
Let's say the first result of the next group is the 3rd dozen. This is slightly different because you can now win on the 7 or 8.
So you would back the first dozen and the 2nd dozen.
Needless to say it works excactly the same way for the columns.
I will let you digest that and feel free to ask any questions.
I will post up more examples and go into more details as well.
There are ways to narrow things down further which I can go into later once the basics are understood.
　
cheers.
