A little over a year ago, I learned how to play roulette via looking at hundreds of YouTube videos and looking at various winning roulette strategy systems in these videos. I have tried all of the systems that I liked on the many free online and smartphone app roulette simulators. I always tried the systems I liked on at least 3 different simulators (to experiment and see the potential outcome if I were playing with real money). Based on the overall results from using the 3 different simulators, I make a decision to “play” or “not play” with real money using the system. Thus far, I have never played with a live dealer, I only play on those electronic roulette tables (the round roulette table with four to eight chairs, like the one in the attached photo). As a beginner, I only play the electronic roulette tables that have a $1 minimum starting bet (starting with a 50 cent chip, thus letting you place two bets on the board for $1 total). Yet there are some roulette tables that have a starting bet of $5 (with only a $1 chip to start with, thus making you play at least five of these $1 chips per round).
Also my biggest tip I can give you, if you plan to use any of those winning roulette systems that they have in those YouTube or other online videos, be sure that you can place those same bets with a live dealer or on an electronic roulette table. Most of those winning roulette systems I have found, the electronic roulette table WILL NOT let you place the same bets as shown in those videos, thus I could never win any of those winnings as they did in those videos. Since I live near a casino with an electronic roulette table, I always go there and put real money in the machine and quickly place the same bet as one of those winning roulette systems calls for, just to see if I can play those exact same bets. If I can’t play the exact same bet, there is a pop-up message on their screen that says “BET IS NOT ALLOWED”. So at that point, I quickly cancel my bet to make sure I’m not betting on the next upcoming round (since I have real money in the machine). The casinos in my area only give you about 25 - 30 seconds to place your bet. So when I’m experimenting on these machines with real money, I have to be quick, so I can quickly cancel my bet. Yet to make it easy, while I’m at home, I take a photo of my computer screen with the bets on the roulette simulator. That way when I’m at the casino, I can quickly pull up the photo and place my bets within 25 - 30 seconds AND delete the bet before the next hand. If I like a particular winning roulette system AND IF I can actually place the same bet on the electronic roulette table, then I will go back home and practice the system on the simulators and see if I want to use the system playing with real money the next time that I go back to the casino.
My only problem now is, I have found some great winning roulette systems that I CAN PLAY on the electronic roulette table, BUT they are very risky. They basically can win BIG if the bankroll is big enough, but they can also lose very quickly even with a big bankroll.
I hope this information helps. Good luck. 🙂
