As the very symbol of casino and online casino gambling, the roulette is surrounded by a series of myths and legends regarding certain shortcuts one can take to make the wheel pay. There is no shortage of internet websites promoting all sorts of fail-proof roulette systems that are guaranteed to work for everyone who can spare $20 on them.

Never believe any "get-rich quick for a measly $20" scheme you come across on the internet, and this piece of advice is valid in general. As far as roulette systems go, it is especially so.

The very core of the setup is rotten, and the motivation behind the actions of a person posting such offers on a website is questionable from the get-go. Why would he ever sell the "secret" which could easily land him several million dollars/week, possibly per day? Often times, such vendors motivate their actions by lame and unconvincing reasons such as: "I got too rich", "I'm fed up with winning all the time" etc. I don't suppose such reasoning needs any further dissection.

Never fall for such childish sucker-traps. The owners of such pages know all too well that the vast majority of the educated public will never fall for their scam. They target individuals who are less knowledgeable in the subtleties and mechanics of the game.

Another reason why buying roulette systems off the net for a few dollars is not a bargain at all is, that it is mathematically impossible to create a system that consistently beats roulette. Believe you me, the multi billion dollar organizations running most of the B&M and some of the online casinos have all the resources to study all the mathematical ins and outs of the game ten times over. They make sure that there is a profitable system at work all right, and also that those profits flow into their coffers.

Roulette is a negative EV game, just like all the other casino games with the exception of poker and online poker (which some do not even consider to be casino games). The exact percentage of negative EV you'll be confronted with depends on the kind of bet you make at the table and the type of roulette (American or European) that you play.

Another myth concerning roulette gambling is the one linked to cold or "sleeping" numbers. Some people seem to think that if a number doesn't turn up for a good while, it's bound to be the next to hit. Absolutely wrong. There are no hot or cold numbers on roulette, (unless there is something mechanically worn with the wheel), and last time I checked, the ball didn't have a memory either. Every single spin is 100% independent of all previous spins, and yields a result which has no link to any of the previous results.

Argue as long as you want about this myth, the bottom line is as simple as presented above.

Looking for a defective roulette wheel which tends to land the ball on certain numbers more often than on others, is not a realistic approach either. Nobody knows the roulette wheel better than its operators: the casino's personnel. If there is anything wrong with it, rest assured they'll be the ones to notice it first. The chances of a mechanical fault happening are meager anyway, since the roulette wheels are not only manufactured to the highest quality standards, they also undergo periodic checks.

Another problematic roulette myth or misconception is the one linked to lucky streaks. A gambler will often exclaim: "I feel like I can't lose tonight" when heading over to the table. Winning sprees do happen indeed, but there are no guarantees about them whatsoever: whether it is time for one to hit you, how long it will last etc, is all up to someone you shouldn't trust for a single cent: Lady Luck.

Bottom line: lucky numbers don't work, winning sprees are entirely random, EV is not on your side and accidents - even if the do sometimes happen - are not likely to be in your favor.

What can you do then to maximize your odds? Avoid wheels with both zeros and double zeros on them, and choose your bets carefully. Placing a bet on which the house edge is minimal should be your objective. Other than that, pray that you get lucky and try to ride the variance the best way you can.

The positive EV that you'll be aiming to secure in online poker receives a huge boost from bonuses and rakeback deals. To learn how to generate positive EV for yourself instead of just waiting around for it to hit you, download some poker torrents and learn directly from the pros.
