In this and many forums I occasionally see methods that appear
to work. What I mean by that is that they get endorsements from
people that they work. Here is one example.

rouletteplayer says this works.

Now my question is this. I have seen this a number of times. And it
always seems like when it happens, the thread ends.

Do people actually come here to narrow down or find ways
that work? And if they do, do they play them? And in the unlikely
event that they DO play them, to they come back and report?
And say "this is great!!! I'm winning now"?

Or is it just reverse psychology and no one really wants to win?

What happens past this black hole?

I came across this method from Izak ("lets talk winning")
a while ago.

The method, simple, is to bet 11 streets, winning 1 unit per spin.
That stripped down method seems a little harsh. But I have seen some
variations on this lately that are interesting.

Not knowing any better, when I first heard about it I tried it.
Real money. Real wheel. $10 per street. (Izak starts out by saying
to bet $100 per street, and win $100.) I won first spin. And lost
the 2nd spin at the time. Lost $110.

Now, looking at methods that have this slant for leverage, sometimes you
need to modify your perspective. There is a saying where, instead of grinding
nickles and dimes, just toss down a $1000 bet for one event and call it a day.
That is more the direction this leans. But I've encountered two more advocates
of this method.

So the other day  I went and played it.  The basis seems to point to looking
for a street to repeat in the last 6 streets, then bet against it. I more or less
bet against recent hits.

I made $5.50.  That's a lot of wins.

The zero didn't kill me. But odds are that you will get MANY more and consecutive
wins. If you get a zero and lose, you can recoup.  You could bet 1x the next spin
and recoup. It is highly unlikely that you will lose 2 in a row.

I am working with it, and it has no hard bounderies. But playing and managing
carefully, I think, has merit. You could recoup in parts.

But I thought I'd throw it out and get a conversation rolling. I've had both
experiences. Live.

You feel pretty confident winning with this. You've just gotta be ready to recoup
once in a while.

Thoughts?
