Please keep in mind, this is all IMO. If you have a better strategy, feel free to share without bashing anybody else!

50/50 chance to win if you always bet on one color to win. So it's really just a matter of betting correctly. Unfortunately, the game caps the max bet at 200, so you have you play your odds the best way possible to maximize your chance of keeping your lead. In roulette, if you have enough money you can always buy yourself out a hole. Since you know there is a 50/50 chance of winning if you bet on one color, you know that you will eventually win the bet. So if you lose a bet, you have to bet more than twice that amount of money to guarantee profit. In my opinion, it's best to start bidding at 50:

Bet 50
Lose
Bet 100
Lose
Bet 200
Win!

You had a 50/50 chance of winning each roll, so even though you lost 2/3 rolls, you win the last one and in the series you win 50 caps. You can start with a lower bet, but you will win less over time. And there are several instances when you'll win the first roll and take 50 right away. The crappy part is if you lose that 200 cap bet, it's best to start from 50 again to stop the bleeding.

Every time you win a roll, you have to start betting again from your starting point. So if you choose to start betting with 15 caps, then to 30 or more, then to 75 or more, etc... if you win at any point in the series, start again from 15. This is the best way to maximize your chances to win. Odds are you will win over time.

Plus you can get decent xp from gambling, it's a win win!

I always max bet on one number, save before hand just incase my number doesn't come up in 5 turns, Ive got lucky 4 times though in 3 casinos and now banned from 2 (Tops and Atomic Wrangler) but I got a lot of caps and some really sweet weapons.

Oh, plus Tyo, its not technically a 50/50 chance because you have to take in account 0 and 00 which are green.

bet 100 on two columns and you you have a 66% chance( not including 0 and 00) of winning 100 and a 33% chance of loosing 200.

The "Double on loss" method is called the Martingale strategy, its notorious in Gambling circles as a strategy that on the face of it seems to work, but actually doesnt.

The problem is it makes one fatal assumption. It assumes you have unlimited money and is famous for busting people out with a seeming "Sure thing"

You can see the Mathematical anolysis here:

There is only one way to win at roulette - buy your own wheel and take other peoples bets.

Not to mention the more apparent problem of maximum bet - even if you have the caps, the casinos only allow you to go up to 200.

Would've been fun if one of the casinos (Tops?) would've offered high roller / VIP areas, and maybe even a poker tournament.

In the game though you do have unlimited money- of you bust you just load the game and wait 60 seconds for the anti cheat measure to expire.
And besides, the mathematics of this get skewed by your luck stat. The higher your luck, the more succesful this strategy will be.

So yes, this is a valid strategy for the game, if not for real life.

To reply to several of the responses. That math is sound. 50/50 chance. And apparently in the game you still win if you bet on a color and it hits the 0 or 00. I think one of them you win, and the other you lose.

As far as the maximum bet of 200... this is exactly why you have to start with a bet somewhere at or below 50 to achieve greater than 50% chance.

And if you use this strategy in a real casino, don't expect to make it home with your knee caps in tact... just FYI

Um, no, you don't have unlimited funds in the game. If you're just reloading that negates the whole strategy thing - you might as well just bet big and reload on a failure.


The risk will be from your loan shark, not the casino.

Google "gambler's fallacy".

Its a valid strategy in real life if you have the funds to support it. when i play i normally use money on the column to support my inside betting to a certain extent I normally keep enough money on the columns to support 50% of my chips on the inside if i win 1 of the columns, and carry enough bankroll to support a complete loss 3 times. anymore then that im just done gambling for the night. there is no sure win strategy in real life. Even when i was dumb enough to believe there was and had my counting team for black jack you would loose even when the odds were stacked enormously in your favor

I fully agree. You should have the option to play some high stakes games. Poker would be a nice touch as well. :foodndrink:

Except every time you load you have to wait 60 seconds to try again. This minimizes your wait time, and maximizes your play time.
