What's the biggest single bet you made on a roulette table?

Playing blackjack, I was playing $500 hand. Most of the time that $500, turned into either $1000-$1500 due to double down or split+double down.

Another idea, though it won't pay out as much but has better odds, is to split the $200 into two separate $100 bets on the thirds. So you'll have $1,000 sitting in one of the thirds and the other $1,000 sitting in another. That way you've now got more of the numbers covered versus simply just the blacks or reds (50% of the numbers each). Of course there is always the damn 0's which is what gives the house the edge. Of course it's impossible to win both third bets, so you'll lose one automatically but the other will pay out 3:1 so you essentially just doubled your bet just as if you would have placed $1,000 on black, red, odd or even! Basically by betting this way you have about a 63% chance of hitting (and that's including the two damn green 0's).

Let's get complicated now: I have to be honest though, since those two zeros don't count toward any third section, if one of those hit you're S.O.L. Which is why the casino still has an advantage, but your odds of hitting increase versus Black, Red, Odd or Even. Hope it all made sense to everyone....

Let me summarize this strategy as I have used this (it's fun and simple). You have a 63% chance of a 33% increase or a 32%(?) chance of losing double. Either way, the longer you play, you will lose.

Yes. Roulette is not a game to sit and play. If you sit for long periods of time, shit probably more than a handful of turns, you will start to lose money even with my strategy. It's just an idea to try to get a few good turns, then I would suggest leaving!

Yeah. This last trip I put 100$ on black twice and won both times but you've got to get up and walk away after that.

After my latest trip, I dunno if it was the biggest single bet I made or not but I was playing $2500 a hand black jack.

this is the end result of all the bright lights, the comp trips, all the champagne and free hotel suites, and all the broads and all the booze. It's all been arranged just for us to get your money.

I played 45 lines max bet on a nickle slot once. What a rush.

I've seen some interesting things happen on a roulette table. Few years ago on a Bahamas cruise, buddy of mine dropped a $50 on a number in the Atlantis casino. Hits! A few hours later on the boat, does the same thing again on a single number, hits! Unreal. I definitely don't have that like but I am liking some of the strategies in here.

35 days and counting...

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.....
