"The Dark Side" section!

[VLSroulette]

The purpose of this section is to have a repository of accepted facts about Roulette.

All are invited to post Math articles on gambling, articles against playing systems and in general, not playing unless you have the edge.

This in place to help educate fellow readers on why one shouldn't be using a system or even not playing at all unless the positive edge is obtained.

The place to elaborate on why system players are wrong is here! Backed with a solid Math background.

There is space for discussing every aspect of gambling, and of course this includes "The Dark Side"...

Cheers!

Hello.

I can post this section with articles on why the systems do not work. But we're not trying to make the systems work? 

I do not understand this section!

Good idea Victor   
Will be an interesting section to follow.

I second Sam's vote for Herb as moderator 

[JHM]

WannaWin we spent a lot of time on systems and testing. But why do we do that, is it because we want to find a system that make more than it losses. In the end all systems fail. So why spent time on systems? There are thousands of systems and none show a profit in the long run. Not that I know.

Why not put time in Bias, DS or VB? There is almost no posting concerning those methods.

Hello dear friends,

The goal of this section is to educate ourselves extensively on information explaining the "why's" it is said systems don't work, in order to increase our background on statistics and math. 

May this section serve to compile this knowledge, this is what the casino owners trust, we must be aware of "that side" of gambling by reading it.

And yes WannaWin, please feel free to "post the section" with as many on-topic articles as you can

May we all increase our statistics and math knowledge via "The Dark Side" section, and hey: They have cookies! (Accepted gambling knowledge cookies!).

Regards,
Victor

I nominate Herb as moderator!

I seconded this Sam
For a professional and experience player such as herb,its good to have him manage a section and impart his invaluable knowledge to all

[Herb]

This section is a great idea Victor.

Mr. Chips,

In short, refer to every post that I've ever written you. 

I'm also pretty sure that you live in another world.

-Herb.                                                                                                                                                                        /.\

So, Herb.....

Will you become the moderator?  Your public awaits you!

This section is not going to be "The Pit Lite" is it?    at me!!

I think it would be quite informative, maybe having all the known facts about roulette and other gambling games may spur an aha moment for somebody.

The challenge still remains. Which system, (if there's such a system) defies gravity for gambling games?

btw, where are the cookies?

[Marven]

Thank you for making this section Victor.
I'm in.

P.S. Ryan, where are you? They made us a section mate!

[Herb]

Welcome to the Dark Side!

Get your brimstone while it's hot! Fresh hot brimstone!

only just found it lol, it feels nice and cozy in here lol


btw

Victor,
 
The internet is littered with so called maths facts, as to why it is impossible to beat roulette in the long term, whatever that
is supposed to be. The so called maths facts are not factual at all, if there was an absolute proof that it's impossible to
overcome the house edge 2.7% I would have come across it during the last 20 years of designing systems and playing roulette.
 
It does not exist
 
I can appreciate your reasons for setting up this section, but you should be aware that certain individuals will criticise systems
and refer to maths to back up their argument.

Maths is concerned with absolute proofs and if such a proof existed I would have given up roulette years ago.
 
Regards
 
Mr Chips

roulette is a game of maths, thats why we use maths to back up an argurement, you cover 36 numbers and you break even on a win, but 1 number will make you lose, on a balanced wheel this will average out over a period of time that you lose 2.7% of you bankroll, same with e/c's, dozens, columns, lines etc etc. its as simple as that.


have you ever seen a winning system before? einstein was a maths guy, would you say he was wrong about saying roulette was unbeatable?

you are making a bold claim that systems can beat roulette, it is up to you to prove us wrong.
