Now I pay attention to the First 12, Second 12, Third 12 bets. I look at the previous hits and see which of those haven't hit in a while. For instance 1-12has not hit on the board for 4 or 5 spins. I place the min bet on the first 12 if it hits I start over and look for another chance like that. If it doesn't hit I double my bet and continue to do so until I hit or run out of money. It usually hits after 2 or 3 spins. I do pretty good staying even sometimes I gat a little low but sometimes I go on a run and maybe hit a number and a couple of other bets.

You know that doesn't work, right? It's not possible to beat the house at roulette in the long run. Although there's a hustle that works with roulette where you bet someone that you can come out ahead. Say the table has a $1 minimum bet and $100 maximum, try to bet some chump at least $100 that you can come out ahead on the roulette table. Start by betting $1 on red, then bet $2, then $4, and keep going until you win one of those. If you're down to your last $37, bet it all on a 3X like 1-12. I forget the exact odds, but it's about a 96% chance that this system gets you ahead by at least $1, and a 4% chance that you lose $100. That means using a roulette system can't beat the house edge, but if you make side bets you can.

A superstitious guy like you is an easy mark for casinos or hustlers, so watch out. Your roulette "system" is based on the idea that the wheel has different odds when certain numbers are hot or cold, but that's just not true.

If it's a lovely wheel you can come out ahead by betting on the hot numbers :v: Casinos these days generally keep a close eye on how their wheels are performing though, so you have to really luck out to find an exploitable bias.

That's true too. There was a guy in the 19th century who paid a few people to record the numbers on the roulette wheels and noticed that one was biased, and he made a fortune. He lost most of it the next day after the casino switched the wheels, then won it back when he found the biased wheel again.
