    This system, the author's choice, depends totally on luck. It's going to bust, sometimes a lot sometimes a little. But it's better than no system at all.

    Thanks for sharing!
    And that's what I said that time in another post.
    I like to study methods, you may not even use them, but it sure increases your perception of roulette!

    I've already downloaded it, I'll convert it to Portuguese later, so I can read it. I know very little English!
    And thank you!

    Playing every hand it is np wonder there were those losses.

    Bethell considered 36 units for those 6 systems .


    In his own words if you lost them all you had a good hour of play .

    In the same book Mr. Bethell mentioned the " Ladies System".

    Simple enough

    Play at your own risk.

    The Tiers Et Tout and the breadwinner were the better ones in that book IMO.

    Here is a stretched Tiers Et Tout. Any attempt at the progression requires 4 units. You can take profit along the way and decide how far you want to push your luck before banking the gains.

    It takes 3 back to back losses to lose the progression. If your bet selection reduces loss streaks this just might be a good fit.

    Decide how many attempts you want to give it and split your session bankroll accordingly to play at the highest stakes possible. If you get anywhere near a 50% strike rate during your session you can do quite well.

    From the breadwinner: remember that all safe systems are necessarily slow.

    I would never actually play most of these progressions but it's the truth that any safe method always has to be slow. What I do is excruciatingly slow, to the point that many times I don't even see anything to bet on. The thing I've always liked about this book is that it was written over a hundred years ago, and the author is obviously extremely familiar with the game of roulette. I learn something every time I read it even though I don't play anything that's in it. He has no bet selection whatsoever, all his plays are progressions based on random bets. But he does have words of wisdom here in there.

    That's actually a great idea. You don't need a system at all. On bet one you can use the time for sunset from that day that charts to Red or Black in a systematic matrix of decisions.

    On bet two you can use odd or even numbers from Joe Biden's daily declining poling data.

    On bet three you can use the estimated chance that you will get laid that day and bet that way on the high / lows.

    You can go on to use any cornball decision to make a bet.

    So how it works is simple. When you are doing good you bet bigger bets. When it is not working you bet smaller bets. When it turns out to be chaotic you bet smaller bets. This requires you to keep track of how you are doing with your anti systematic bet selection process. You can bet on who's a racist, global warming, global wobble, glaciers melting after an ice age, the number of days since your car was built, a baby's arm holding an apple, etc...

    I'm betting on Joe Biden being even more demented when he deals with long covid after a so-called recovery. Long covid is a bummer for people in their 50s and Biden is almost 80. He is screwed..

    Hello @TwoUp ,

    I'd like to talk to you later about something I think you might be interested in.

    If you want to beat roulette, read what the casino risk consultants are saying. It's that simple.

    By the way, for you hole carders and sort players...there's a new eye drop out called Vuity. It dramatically increases your ability to focus quickly. They will make your eyes feel like your 20 again. I use them and love them. They burn quite a bit going in and will last for about four hours. They run about $80 per month...depending on how often you use them. They constrict the pupils and will reduce glare in the casino, but they can make it slightly more difficult to see in some very dark casinos.

    Read about it where, what are you talking about. Casino risk Consultants work for the casino so whatever they have to say is totally biased and I'm sure it's a laugh riot of misinformation. Please provide a link.

    It's really this simple.

    APs exploit a game. As casinos take a beating, they bring in experts to analyze why they lost. The experts (often old APs) then share the info with others at conference. It's a continuous game of catch up. Fortunately many of the experts are lazy APs that sold out to the other side, so they are often more than one step behind current events. Still, that info is better than anything that you're going to find being posted among system junkies.

    Sometimes APs attend the game protection conferences as a "hotel employee" or "other" and share the info among networks of other APs discretely. It's really quite a game. When they held it at the Trop in LV, there were videos floating around of the conference presenters and their program.

    It's also entertaining to follow their Twitter feeds. The consultants love to brag about how they busted the latest scam here and there. All the while, they feed info to more APs. It's one of the silliest things you've ever seen.

    They say broke dick, wobbly wheels, are no longer an AP possibility. That's because they are misidentified as common everyday randomness. They see a temporary hot sector on a wheel and they use magical thinking to see it as a short lived AP. So it works until it no longer works. Sometimes it comes back.

    Compared to hot or cold numbers sectors of 6 or 9 neighbors on the wheel should be no problem .


    On a single 0 wheel one can cover 17 neighbors with 9 chips .
