How to Size your Bets Properly when Playing Roulette Online in 2024

We all know that the gambling industry has evolved into something that’s quite different from all the traditional forms of gambling, including brick and mortar casinos or in other words – the only places where you could indulge in gambling, in the past.

Today, you can gamble anytime and anywhere, with only your phone, Internet access, a bit of time and enough enthusiasm. That being said, many games that were available only in casinos all around the world, are not only available online, but are updated and upgraded, and online casino websites offer amazing bonuses, jackpots options, and unparalleled experience when it comes to effects such as visuals, audio, and the user interface in general.

There are even games that support interactive gambling, with special features that have incorporated Ai and virtual reality into the old and popular games such as poker or slots.

This is the exact reason why some of the most popular games have become even more popular and are usually played online rather than offline. You’d be surprised to find out that some of the most popular games are still poker, blackjack, slots and finally – roulette, especially for newbies. One of the first games that come to their mind is definitely roulette, considering the fact that this is something we’ve all seen in movies and that it’s something that makes us excited, it doesn’t come as a surprise that roulette is one of the top 5 things people want to try at least once in their lifetime.

It is a pretty risky game, whether it’s played online or offline and this is one of the biggest reasons why people love it. It is the anticipation, the excitement and the risk that makes people hooked on roulette and to be honest – who doesn’t like to watch the ball moving? Those few seconds while you’re waiting for the ball to fall on the right number, seems to be some of the most exciting experiences for people; however, is there any difference between online and offline roulette?

According to verovapaatkasinot.com, online casinos offer far better and bigger bonuses, since there are less expenses compared to brick and mortar roulette, which is why online roulette turns out to be so lucrative for people. Still, there are few more reasons for its popularity.

When you first start playing poker, you soon realise that this game is about skills. You have to be experienced when it comes to your body language, you need to have a good memory, you need to have a developed strategy, and many other things on the list, if your goal is to win money (and that is everyone’s goal). On the other hand, with roulette, you only need a bit of luck and you need a good casino to start with.

What does this mean? This means that if you had to choose between several different casino games, this will be the best option if you are a newbie who wants to have fun and win some money, feel the excitement along the way. Still, there are certain strategies you can use and it’s not only pure luck that brings you success in this game. When it comes to roulette, the most important thing is knowing how to manage your bankroll, how to determine the amount of bets and when to stop.

This is somewhat similar to all the other games since you need to take care of your bankroll, but these things really make a difference in roulette. Before you even start placing bets, choosing the numbers of your liking and hoping that you will get what you want, you need to make sure that the website you’re about to play games on is legitimate, licensed, renowned and reputable. Consider choosing an online casino as if you were choosing a brick-and-mortar casino in some of the famous gambling cities such as Las Vegas. Of course you would go to a widely known one such as the Bellagio, rather than an unknown, small casino.

After you’ve done some research, checked the reviews and even spoke to other players in the field, especially professionals, you can start thinking about strategies you can use in order to be on top of the game. Still, you need to be aware of the fact that in roulette you’re always playing against the house. This is challenging for some and this is a kind of challenge they love because it seems like a fun idea to outsmart the system and to win against the compute, but it’s not always easy to achieve this, which is why you need to implement a certain strategy or at least have several of them in mind. Let’s dig into it:

The first thing you need to know is that there are two types of this game – the American and the European roulette and they differ from one another by the odds you get. It has been proven that the US version gives you worse chances of winning, since two square zeros slightly reduce your odds.

1. DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF YOUR BET

This strategy means that when you make the first bet, whether you’ve lost it or not, you should double the next one with the same amount. That means that if you’ve invested $10, next time, you should add $10 more to it. This system is okay if you have a lucky streak, but if not, it will drain your bank account pretty fast, which is not something you would want to happen. Depending on the amount of money you want to spend and the strategy you are willing to use, you can test this and see if it works for you or not.

2. PLACING THE SAME BETS ON THE SAME SPIN

This strategy means that you should pick the numbers and the fixed amounts of money and always bet the same, until you reach your goal. For example, you can decide to place 3 bets, each bigger than the previous one – $5, $10 and $15 and then stick to it until you get the results you want. This might work if you know the history of the game and you can calculate the odds.

3. ALL OR NOTHING

Having 50% chances of winning sometimes sounds like a good idea, especially if you are a type of person who loves the waiting and all the risk it goes with this strategy. If you wanna bet on the color, then you can invest all of your money and hope you’re gonna win against the house.

4. REDUCE YOUR BET IF YOU LOSE

This strategy saves your money. If you invest $20 and you lose, this means that you should go back by the 2 steps, and reduce your next bet accordingly – investing only a half of the amount this time. If you win, you can just repeat the bet, without reducing it. It’s a great way to control your bankroll and not get carried away.
