Roulette wheel. Why does red always come up more then black?

Red always comes up more. Why? Does it matter if the ship is shaking? and why do they have those silly green ones? I've done well just betting red. I've never bet on black, but I've seen people do it. Don't they want to win? Should I bet more? I'm afraid if I keep winning they wont let me play any more.

Thanks

Everyone that plays roulette has a system. Sorry, but a game like that is all random #'s the casino has the odds. A looses game. The casino will ALWAYS win.They have the 0-00

and heads comes up more then tails, I hope you were joking, totally random, just like even and odd. OK, you flip a coin 20 times and it comes up heads, what are the odds it's tails, yes 50/50

I use to deal Blackjack, Craps and Roulette for 20 years in Atlantic City. And have to say, I laughed so hard at these posts.

 

All Carnival cruise ships use an American Roulette wheel which consist of 37 numbers, but the highest pay-out is only 35 to 1. (this should be your first warning you are being played by the casino) If you are lucky enough to find a Europeon Roulette wheel elsewhere, this will have 36 numbers as there is no 00, but the highest pay-out is still only 35 to 1 (casino still has an edge).

 

If you think that only playing red will make you a winner, you are wrong. It makes you lucky for a short amount of time. Please remember that a roulette wheel is calibrated daily, the little white ball is changed out during every shift. A dealer could find themselves in hot water is they are caught lookiing at the wheel when they release the ball.

 

Those towers that display what numbers, colors, odd/evens have recently come up are all there to let the player THINK they have an edge. And that little white ball that spins around???? It has no memory! If the number 30 comes up, the next spin the odds are still 37 to 1 that 30 will come up again - which is the same odds that the number 13 will come up.

 

If you do have a system............ you will be detected and if the casino feels you have won too much money from that system, they are within their legal rights to refuse your action.

 

Finally......If you feel the need to gamble, please remember that the casino is there to take your money. The rules are set up to give the house an overwhelming advantage. Have people won? Of course they have - but only 5.26% of the people who walk into a casino will walk out with more money than they walked in with. So 94.74% of the people will donate there money to the casino.

 

Question is: are you feeling lucky?????????????????

Haha...I hope you are joking.

 

But in case you aren't:

 

As others have already posted, you have the exact same chance of hitting red as you do hitting black (which is less than 50% because of the greens).

 

But, if playing roulette is working for you then more power to you!

Every Carnival cruise i've been on the roulette wheel had 36 numbers.....13 rows of 3 numbers. Plus the 0 and 00 which i hate.

If you put a chip on the red space and a chip on the black space (not a #, just the space on the side) and a chip on the odd# space and a chip on the even # space, your chances increase to 100% from 50% :D;):rolleyes: That is my system! :eek:

Just curious: since you know the "behind the scenes"' of a casino more than the rest of us, if you were given $100 to play at ONE GAME TABLE what would it be? Roulette, BJ, craps, slots, etc??? :confused:

Another game with 100% payout:

Craps has the lowest house advantage. BJ is fairly low if one is a skilled player. Slots typically have a very high house advantage overall.

 

I play blackjack almost exclusively.

Purely based on odds, the best games are usually Blackjack (straight Blackjack with a 3:2 payout for blackjacks, none of those silly gimmicky variations) and Craps (playing maximum odds when possible, playing only Pass/Don't Pass or Come/Don't Come, avoiding all the other sucker bets).
