Roulette strategy - futility of strategies

Despite the existence of a great many systems for conquering the roulette wheel, most of them cannot actually overcome the ever-present house edge (which ranges from 1.35% to 7.89%), because they are essentially only money management strategies. When employing these strategies, all you are doing is putting your money down on a given proposition, and hoping for a significant slice of luck.

The layout of the numbers at the betting area has nothing to do with the numbers in the wheel itself. The placement of these numbers was only done to prevent gamblers employing a second, highly questionable system known as the wheel strategy.

Wheel strategies work on the theory that the wheel mechanism itself may be flawed. It is said that no roulette mechanism is perfect and that some are significantly less perfect then others. On the latter type of wheel, a player may be able to identify a certain number where the hits are way out of proportion with probability and in so doing he may overcome the house edge.

However, to play accurate wheel strategies requires a great deal of time and often money. Several thousand hits on a specific wheel are needed before a player ca ascertain with a high degree of certainty that the wheel is indeed biased.

For most players, the amount of time effort and money needed to achieve this is just too much of a chore. Others, however, find it pleasurable.

The second type of general strategy is known as wheel tracking. This strategy supposedly helps a player to determine in what sector of numbers the ball will land in after it has been cast. This is done by weighing the speed at which the ball is cast against the speed of the wheel.

Generally there is a 15 to 20 second window of betting opportunity for players who can perform this feat, as it is generally the last few revolutions of the wheel that provide the visual tracker with his information. The flaws in each of these strategies are glaringly obvious, and it is fair to say that neither of them can be counted on by anyone bar the roulette obsessed or the highly gifted.
