Winning is always nice. Everyone will agree with this. Even opponents of gambling. Many gambling newbies are sure that getting regular profits in a casino is quite possible. The main thing is to be able to manage emotions and use the right approach to gambling. Roulette is popular in all gambling establishments: both online and offline. Many inexperienced gamers try to make it a source of constant income, so it makes sense to understand this important issue a little.
Roulette Features: Some Important Information for Gambling Newbies
Contrary to the opinion of a huge number of players who are sure that it will not be difficult to beat roulette if you know a few secrets, it is very difficult. In fact, using roulette to get a guaranteed income is even more difficult than other games. Why? It's simple:
- mathematicians have never been able to deduce any patterns in the game;
- The “tricky” betting system does not actually work (it makes sense to forget about Martingale and other strategies);
- in land-based casinos, the establishment's security service monitors the actions of roulette players very closely;
- it is impossible to predict in which cell the ball will stop or to understand the possible rebound;
- it is almost impossible to find “weak” spots in offline roulette (the game has existed for over 200 years, do you really think that the “jambs” haven’t been fixed long ago?);
- In online casinos, the game, like all other gambling entertainment, is equipped with a random number generator and RTP, and this does not allow the gambling establishment to make losses.
Sometimes a casino visitor (any) gets lucky and actually wins, and even a lot. However, we must remember that luck is very fickle, and even inexperienced players have no doubts about this in regard to gambling. It makes sense to understand why roulette is absolutely not suitable for making a steady income. It is simply an excellent entertainment for those who want and know how to relax without losing huge fortunes on their passion for gambling.
Casino Superiority and RTP: The Essentials in a Nutshell
For those who don’t understand what the above terms mean, we’ll give you a quick primer:
- RTP stands for Return to Player. This indicator is calculated as a percentage, so the higher it is, the more chances the gamer has to succeed. The average RTP level for all games in any gambling club is always less than 100%.
- Casino Advantage is the difference between 100% and the above mentioned RTP. Even if the average RTP is 99%, the casino still makes a good profit over the long term from the bets of its visitors.
RTP can vary significantly among the games offered to visitors. For example, in video slots connected to the global progressive jackpot system, it is lower than that of a regular one-armed bandit. For example, the famous Mega Moolah slot machine from Microgaming has a return of only 88,12%, while any other simulator that does not participate in the jackpot draw has a return of more than 94-95%. And what about roulette? What advantage does the casino have over the gamers who launch it?
- American – 5,26%;
- European – 2.7%;
- French – 2.7% (or 1.35% when using the La Partage rule).
These numbers are valid for classic roulette types. If we are talking about unique versions, the numbers may differ slightly from those indicated.
Constant income for a roulette player: myth or reality?
The myth that playing roulette can be made a source of constant income has been "walking" around the Internet for a long time. In fact, this is impossible in either a land-based or online casino. Only one-time winnings (including large ones) are real. In offline casinos, many players tried to cheat the dealer, created chaos during the game to make the dealer make a mistake, stole chips, etc. However, security services and video surveillance do not allow using such methods to get a constant income.
In online casinos, roulettes always have an RTP that is less than 100%. It is impossible to make it higher using a “tricky” betting system or any other method. That is, playing roulette over a long period of time always brings losses. At the same time, losing much faster and more than in a land-based casino is not difficult, since the process of playing online is much faster. The human factor (croupier errors) is excluded in virtual establishments. For Live roulette in online casinos, all of the above is also true. It has live dealers, but only for the entourage (it will not be possible to deceive them).
Hacking the software is possible, but practically impossible. In any case, the casino operator will not allow you to withdraw the winnings obtained in this way. And finally, progressive jackpots in roulette, if they are played out, then rarely and with a very low RTP. From all that has been said, we can conclude: roulette cannot be a source of constant income, but is an excellent option for relaxation for those who know how to manage emotions and are not gambling addicts.
