This thread is devoted to the "ultimate" bet of roulette: only one number.


Feel free to suggest your way.

The patient waker

Mark off every until only one number is left.

Wait (patiently) until this number shows.

Bet on it until a hit or 36 spins at most.

The latest repeater

"Look backwards" on every spin, until you spot the first number to repeat.

Bet this number while keeping the backwards-looking process.

When a new number repeats, switch the bet. 

The Matrix Filler

On a 6 x 6 matrix, bet the number that completes a 6-number straight line, in any direction.


Illustrative examples:


Vertical:


[attachimg=1]


Horizontal:


[attachimg=2]


Diagonal:


[attachimg=3]


[attachimg=4]

Single numbers in rotation

Play for 37 spins marking off each number when it hits. After the 37 spins, pick any one of the remaining numbers and back it for 24 spins or until it hits (keep crossing off the numbers as they come in). If your chosen number hasn't hit after the 24 spins, pick another of the remaining unhit numbers and back it for 20 spins or until it hits (keep crossing off the numbers). If again no hit, then pick another of the remaining numbers and back it for 16 spins or until a win. If necessary, back any remaining numbers one at a time, again for 16 spins only.

If the series shows a loss, repeat the whole procedure using 2 units on each number. If the 2nd series shows a loss, repeat once more with a stake of 3 units.

If the loss is less than 24 units after any series, use a stake of 1u on the next series. If it's over 24 but less than 60, use a stake of 2u, if it's over 60 use 3u.

Boring to play but can be very profitable.

That's the only thing that matters dear friend 

It's never boring to win!

The longest zone bridge

Wheel-based.

You start noting numbers then bet the "1-number hole" that would make the longest zone bridge.

The longest zone bridge

OMG love this thread already.  Please give some example for this bet.

I love this idea also, you could use that idea to play reverse roulette.

So these are interesting bet selection choices. What about a very long progression to pick up an eventual winner?

Why don't you suggest one, Gizmo?

I'm rewording the "bridge" post, better to use "longest zone by gap" or something along those lines, since it conveys the message in a clearer way ... making some illustrative charts too...

Feel free to continue posting. I'll just edit the posts above and advice here

It's my turn to be lazy. I was planning on perfecting one for the past two months. But someone may have a good one. Here is a hint. Even the hottest number has intervals as long as 50-60 spins without hitting, while still being the hottest number occurring.

Actually, I worked upon the hottest number, way back. It doesn't only have intervals of 50-60 but even 3-4 time of that, even after remaining the hottest.
         Playing one number can never be a good idea. Whatever parameter you guys have discussed in this topic, doesn't make it a good bet.
it is more about MM than bet selection.

Hmmm, we have a smart one. It's very true, what you just said. And inside that wisdom is the true reason that Pattern Breaker fails. All progression based systems have their killer sequence that occur just often enough to take back all your winnings. That's assuming that you start out in a win streak.
