"While not a strategy to win money, former Los Angeles Times editor Andrés Martinez described a betting method in his book on Las Vegas titled "24/7". He called it the "dopey experiment". The idea is to divide one's roulette session bankroll into 35 units. This unit is bet on a particular number for 35 consecutive spins. Thus, if the number hits in that time, the gambler wins back the original bankroll and can play subsequent spins with house money. However, there is only a 1 − (37 / 38)35 = 60.68% probability of winning within 35 spins (assuming a double-zero wheel with 38 pockets)" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roulette

My casino edge is the fact that as far as i know they give you free drinks whilst your playing.

So Id plot up on a roulette table and keep things level stakes to evens shots knowing that the zero(s) are the house edge but my edge is the free brandy's.

I guess the test comes when I'm steaming :mrgreen:
Would be an outrageous test of self discipline I suppose.
