I post the hint above and you develop your own killer method.
This is a system that developed while I was tweaking the "Very near infallible Roulette system". That system is way too complicated and almost impossible to play except at home with pen and paper and time.

Well, with a horde of "in-laws and outlaws" currently in my house, I sequestered myself in the computer room and ran your sample set based on a simple set of SIX different, basic, wagering plans. Although these are the main ones I use in baccarat, they work just as well for any EC game as these are all MECHANICAL plays with no thinking involved.
Here are the results:
B1 Chase = +8
S42 Basic = +5
F2 = +16
F1 (Chase) = +2
Straight 'Z' = +14
Basic AOD = +11
These are nothing fancy and there's literally no thinking involved. You pick the play, you play it. If you should determine during a round of play that one play would be better than another, you change over to it, but this assumes you subscribe to the theory of trending of some sort.
Only one of the "system" plays required a single wager of 6 units, but then it's one of the worst plays (F1) and probably the one that most people play initially until they actually learn something. F1 being "Follow the 1". Only good in any streaky game, of course.
I'm afraid we're attempting to manipulate our play in such a convoluted method that it seems the more work we do, the better our results "should" be. This is apparently not correct as evidenced by these 6 simple plays.
If you read these forums year after year, there is a fact that rises to the top that cannot be discounted. That is that everybody has a great theory or idea but nothing ever comes out of them. All kinds of ideas are tossed up only to be brought back a few years later by another crop of budding casino winners. Of course that's what keeps the forums running, the ad money coming in and the community alive.
However, the fact remains that almost nobody is actually making any money out of the casinos.
So, as roulette is a mathematical game, slighly biased against the player, perhaps one should get back to tweaking the basics of wagering and wealth management instead of trying for the "home run" of casino betting.
Slow but sure brings in the money on a steady basis. My brother hasn't figured that out yet and loses his bankroll on pretty much each scheduled casino trip although he is usually "up" sometime during the session! Learn to win small AND often and I believe things will work out much better. It may not be as "exciting" as cashing out a $20,000 marker at the table, but then it sure beats taking out a loan to pay the food bill.
