Going to stop at harrahs today and will drop a substantial amount on either red or black, and I'd like to have the OT'S input. Vote Here

I've always wanted to do it, one bet all or nothing. I'll make it in a few hours as I make my way there!

If you really want to gamble, throw it on 13-24.

Bet on the 1-12, 13-24, 25-36 Those pay 2:1 If you place a bet on two of those, you have a 66.6% chance of winning on one of them and still getting a return on your money even though you are guaranteed to lose on one of your bets. So if you put down $10 on first 12 and $10 on 2nd 12 and one of them hits, you win $20 on your winning bet and lose the $10 on the losing bet so you still take in $10 It seems an improvement over the odds of betting on red or black where it is only 50/50 I am also assuming they let you bet on more than one of the options, I don't usually go to the roulette table. Maybe I should..

That's not how probability works. On a roulette table no bet is a better bet than any other

Yeah but if you lose you're out twice as much. All roulette beds have the same return except for the green numbers I think. I think betting on those or a double/5 bet on them and the 1/2/3 have worse odds.

so how is a third, with the 2 greens in play, better than a red or black where you get 1/2 the board plus them in play? I haven't looked up the odds but.....
