Gamblers Guide to Winning (1991 Documentary) - Jenny Barraclough 

Old Chinese proverb…. ‘best way to double money is to fold and put in pocket’

thats what Fred Renzey meant by every combination is free to come out, 8 reds followed by a black or 8 blacks followed by a red both are likely

if the odds are empirically 50/50, then logically, the odds of a streak continuing gradually approach 0% with each consecutive succession. anyone that can't understand that, i'm sorry

In the case of the roulette wheel couldn't you just ride the pattern? Like if black came up 3 times just get on it and ride the wave. If red comes up more than 3 times than just ride the wave. That 3 in a row can turn into 5,6,7,8+ in a row before a loss. In this case you'd just be taking advantage of variance in the percentages. Don't bet against a repeater coming up, bet on it coming up and ride the streak without upping your bet.

Bet martingale on black or red roulette...but first grow some big balls

Guys i do it a different sort of way on roulette. I wait for a color to come up five times and not repeat. So say it goes. Red black red black black black red green red black red black black. So five times red hit but didn't repeat. So next time red hits i will place a chip on red to repeat. If it doesn't i will wait till it hits again and i will only place one chip on red to repeat to get the chip i lost back. If i win im even. If i lose then im two chips down. Its then that i must hope next spin comes up red when i will have only one chip on it and if i win i will only be down one chip. Again i will wait for my chance to get my one chip back. It can take a few hours to make some money but usually i make some dosh. Minimum bet is ten bucks
