Common Sense Winning Roulette Strategy

There is really no mathematical system that will work in any game of chance. Mathematical systems work only on certain gambling tables that have at least a small bit of human control. But like other completely random games of chance, roulette doesn't have a solid mathematical winning strategy. The law of probability applies very well to roulette.

The most that we can ever do when formulating a strategy when playing roulette is to make a betting strategy. Since the only human control open in roulette is making bets, the most math we can ever do is to calculate the odds of each possible bet in roulette. The odds change when you switch from a European wheel to an American wheel that has the 00's on it.

Since roulette is a game of chance, the only feasible thing we can do to formulate our winning strategy is to depend on our luck and, of course, our common sense. Every single intelligent gambler will always look for the rules that will give a better chance of winning.

Our next course will be to make a winning roulette strategy based on the aspects of the game. We will need to play roulette with better odds of winning and get more money from playing roulette in the long run. We will also need to consider the house edge in formulating our common sense winning roulette strategy.

Let's begin with comparing the house edge of the two roulette wheels we can play on. A European roulette wheel gives the casino a house edge of 2.63% while the American roulette wheel gives a house edge of up to 5.26%. Now that is a huge advantage for the casino when considering both roulette wheels.

So the first step in our common sense winning strategy is to play only on European roulette wheels to avoid the whopping house advantage from American roulette wheels.

On the subject of house edge, the five-numbers bet has a house 7.89%, so we'd rather avoid making that bet. One big rule we can also follow with regard to our common sense winning strategy is to make more outside bets.

Outside bets have better odds than inside bets in roulette. In American roulette, the best odds for inside bets are at 38 to six, while the best odds for outside bets are at 38 to 18 (almost 50%). The only draw back is that outside bets doesn't make that much of a payoff compared to inside bets in roulette.

So the last part of our common sense winning strategy is to make more outside bets for more money, and just play inside bets for fun (your luck might strike and make you rich, who knows).

The only feasible strategy we can use on roulette is a common sense based winning strategy playing at less house edge and better odds.
