Re: red or black

I used to be a Croupier.. Red!


Is this where somebody mentions a Casino site where you can double your £5, and get a free £5 bet?

Re: red or black

Don't often visit the Casino but remember many years ago I did a £25 bet (was my biggest ever single bet at the time) on Roulette.

Bet on Black and Black it was. Paid for the rest of the night

Re: red or black

Black mate, what happened to the poll? Perfect for a quick poll before u went.

Last time i went i put my last 100 on Black, won then cos drunk nearly forgot to take the 200 back off till some guy went "bit of bet there" and i remembered.
Red after so was lucky. Love the roulette at casino, brilliant.

Re: red or black

Just dont go too heavy on the booze, greed takes over even more.
Last time i went i was 600 up in a hour and left 110 down
If was more sober it's easier to leave it and have fun.
Bear that in mind for later.

Re: red or black

Don't forget that i't's not strictly 50/50 odds as if you're unlucky the 0 may roll in!

Re: red or black

Good Luck. Now u decided stick a 20 on it
Bit early for casino but we dont usually go till after Midnight, Usually Open till 6am, That can also be deadly

Yeah an if the Zero rolls in u only get half ur stake back.

Black brings you back, red sends you to bed.

Re: red or black

heres how it went:

took out £50

went straight in £5 on red - Bingo!!! - the random tactic worked

played a £10+1 game of poker - lost!!

played some blackjack - was up to around £63 - fine

put some random bets on roulllete - up to £80

beer started to get the better of me - unfortunately left with around £3


my mate however; paced random bets on the inside board and won 5 out of 6 times including 0 twice!!!!

needless to say he was very cocky about the whole thing and decided to go on about it in the taxi the whole way home!

i really should know better
