1. Never gamble with “dear” money. The number one rule for gambling, and the most important of all roulette tips, is to never gamble with “dear” money; only gamble with “excess” money. In other words, never gamble with money that you will need now, or may need in the near future, to pay for your financial commitments and everyday living expenses.
2. Don’t Kid Yourself. With a house advantage of 5.26% or more roulette is not a game for serious gamblers. The most important tips for roulette will, therefore, not be on ways to improve your chances of winning but rather on ways to effectively manage your money as you gamble.
3. Manage Your Money. If you play roulette for an extended period, you will lose your money. So before you play decide how much you’re willing to lose and when you reach that amount walk away. If you’re ahead at some point, pull some of your winnings out of your bankroll and out it into a “do not touch” pile so that you’ll have something to cash in when the rest of your bank is gone.
4. Determine your Standard Betting Unit. Decide how much you’re willing to lose at roulette and divide that number by 10 or 20. This should be your standard betting unit; the amount that you will bet on each roll. Whether you spread this amount among several bets or place it all on one, don’t go above this amount unless it is part of a betting strategy you will employ.
