there is a previous question like this, but the answer to the “resolved question” says mohegan sun and foxwoods are closest, but this is wrong, as you must be 21 to play blackjack there.

If you had to report every time you won every single bet, some folks could seriously get up to hundreds of thousands of dollars each year, even though they may only win or lose a thousand or so per year!

Only worry about it when you withdraw. (By the way – with roulette, that won’t be very often!)

Question by -_-: roulette strategy for inside bets only?
i have a math assignment, and we have to think of a strategy using theoretical probability to give the best roulette strategy for inside bets only. So if you have any suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated!

Answer by Graybeard
Your teacher is a fool.

There are many different inside bets in roulette, and they all have the same probability, with the exception of one bet, the “first five” (0, 00, 1, 2, 3). All of the other inside bets (and combinations of inside bets) have the same probability, but different variance.

What do you mean by, “best”?

If you want my opinion of the roulette strategy that is least likely to lose, it is this: do not bet.

For people who realize that the casino is going to win and they are prepared to spend a certain amount of money to play and have fun, there is another strategy, but it is based in psychology, not probability. That is, to bet lots of inside bets distributed widely around the layout. That will decrease the variance so they are highly likely to get large payout, but will still lose in the long-term. It will, however, be fun getting large payouts. That strategy is best for those who want to play roulette to have a good time.

For those who want to take a chance and maybe win a large amount but probably lose, the strategy would be to bet on one number only. It is unlikely they will win, but if they do, they are winning 35:1. That strategy is best for those who want to win a large jackpot.

Nevertheless, the probability remains the same. It is only the variance (and standard deviation) which change.
