John Greenhoff has been checking out a computer program designed to predict patterns and winning bets in online roulette. It's worth checking out but remember it can't be used playing roulette at real casinos as the spin is completely random there.
Check it out here - I'm pretty impressed so far.

It's rather sad but the majority of secret roulette betting strategies are based on one that's over two hundred years old - still doesn't work.
If you started looking for a roulette betting strategy maybe on the internet - I guarantee you would find a certain one. It might be given a different name or have some slight variation on the original - but it would highly likely be based on the martingale system.
This super, secret, guaranteed winning strategy has been around for a couple of centuries and I doubt anyone has become rich from it yet.
The system sounds fairly plausible - you bet on an even odds result (say red/black or odd/even) then if you lose you repeat the bet double your original stake. The idea is that if you keep doing this then you eventually make a profit. There are quite a few problems with this system even though the idea sounds like it might work.
There are no truly 50/50 bets in a casino - there is always a slight house edge. If you are unable to double your stake at any point the system fails
The system is taking the risk of a very large loss in exchange for lots of little gains
If you reach the house limit - the system breaks down
Your stake requirements can get very large if you lose a few times in a row. There are variants on the system - where you don't start betting until you've seen certain combinations occurs e.g. wait for three reds in a row and then start using martingale buy betting on black.
The main statistical problem with all of them is they are presuming that after a sequence of certain events - the opposite event is more likely. This is not true as passed events have no bearing on the next spin of the wheel - you can roll red 15 times in a row but it's still 50/50 (excluding 0) the next spin - this is usually ignored in the average roulette betting strategy. This statistical truth means that long sequences actually occur more often that you expect - the Martingale player could easily be faced with the situation of having to place bets of several thousand dollars to recoup a $1 profit!
Although I prefer the atmosphere of a real life casino and roulette table - online roulette is becoming increasingly problem. The major difference is that the wheels spins are not controlled by random chance but by a computer attempting to simulate this.
Casino killer is a program designed to predict patterns and winning bets in online roulette - it only works with outside bets (i.e. it doesn't predict single numbers only combinations). It's worth checking out but remember it can't be used as a roulette betting strategy with real casinos as the spin is completely random there.
