I put $100 on black (this wasn't my intention at all but i was too drunk ) and lost it. Quickest $100 I lost, took 5 seconds.

Does 3 big bets at the roulette table (assuming you win the first 2) rate less than 3 big bets at craps considering your money will be "in play" for longer?

Leaving tomorrow and one of the guys thinks he is going to own the roulette table. The last time we went he lost all of his money faster than I could give it away.

Can we count the stock market as a game of a roulette? Have some pretty big bets in that LOL

We do something similar (albeit smaller) to start each of our trip...it's become a bit of a tradition for us. We call it Shock and Awe. One number on a roulette table, $20. We cover the number with a few bucks, then scatter the rest of the chips around the sides and corners of that number. Spin once and walk away. I won a couple of trips ago on 17 -- my $20 bet turned into $300 or so. Which is significant for me, I'm a low roller with a $500 bankroll for a weekend.

i am more of a BlackJack player, however, me and my group of buddies always monitor the Roulette tables. Whenever we see 7 or more of one color in a row, we immediately walk up and toss $100 on the opposite color, if it hits, take our original $100 back and ride the winning $100 for another spin or two, if it lasts we have sometimes walked away with $3-400 on that original c-note....on the flipside, sometimes we lose that first spin and just walk away. ill admit those pesky 0's and double 00's piss us off to no end, but thats just part of it. i have not seen too many of those European wheels without the Zero's though....Last year my friend and i paid for our trip doing this on Roulette, this was at the MGM.....

I do the same thing, especially when I have a gut feeling that it'll be the opposite color.

No more than about $10 - $20 for me. In Feb last year a mate did $25 on 5 and it came in.

I also had the luck of my final bet in Vegas was $5 on 6 (my only bet of the day) just before we left he casino and it came in, that got spent on duty free at the airport.

In May I'm trying to get the lads to have a few silly bets that we do each day.

Thinking $5 each on different numbers on roulette, any winnings go towards the happy hour pot.

Maybe do the same with a choosen slot machine.

I have a tradition of throwing $1k down on Red right after I check in to the hotel. It either doubles my gambling money or it's a sign that the gambling Gods don't want me to go crazy during the stay.

I've had success with it in 3 out of the last 4 trips.

Didn't do the $1k on Red this time.

Instead, bet $1k on the Super Bowl Coin Toss.

I was very happy when that coin came up Heads.

Ok....let me first preface this by saying that this happened last year in Biloxi (unfortunately not Vegas). Me and 3 buddies headed out for a 2 night guys trip to gamble, drink, etc. We are FAR from high rollers (average 25 year olds). On the trip over (about an hour) we began talking about how much of our trip money we could lose and not have a miserable weekend. Each of our weekend budgets was about $1000.

We decided to each take $500 and throw it down on red. We figured that if we won.....then hell yeah! If we lost, well....we could still have a pretty good time with $500.

We took a few shots after we checked in (so we wouldn't lose our nerve), and headed to the table. It felt REEEALLY High-Rollerish to walk up and say "$2000 on red. Ha!

It was the most nerve racking, awesome, intense, and terrible 8 seconds until the ball landed.......on RED!!!!!!

We went nuts, and had a ridiculous weekend. I would love to do it again next weekend in Vegas, but I don't know if the wife will go for it. LOL!

[naterizzle]

I usually do $50 on Red right after checking in as a tradition. After a few too many drinks one time, I put $800 on Red. The wheel started spinning and the ball was bouncing. As things slowed down, the ball settled on.....
Fucking 00 green. FML, but that's why it's called "gambling" and not "winning."
