The most famous roulette story has to be that of Chris Boyd, a 40 year-old computer programmer from England. In 1994 he decided to fulfill his dream in the casino of Las Vegas on the Roulette wheel. He had saved up 0,000 and he wanted to risk and to put this sum on one spin. It wasn’t very easy to find a casino that would let him make such a huge bet. Most casinos refused him. The last casino he visited was Binion’s Horseshoe Club. The maximum bet available was 0,000, but the casino let him make a 0,000 bet. The casino also agreed to block out the double-zero on the wheel as this didn’t exist in the European version of the game that Chris was used to playing. Chris placed all his money on red. The casino and the dealer agreed to a few practice spins to ensure that full fairness for everyone concerned, and then the big spin came. The ball landed in number 7, red. Chris won 0,000 instantly, and asked for the money to be put into the casinos cage, and vowed never to gamble again.

Some people like the bright lights of Las Vegas. They book their room in the Flamingo, fly down, see some shows, eat at the Vegas buffets, and bet a little money on the roulette wheel. However, this is an expensive, once a year type proposition, and many people might not be able to afford to go to Vegas right now. And what if you are bored one night, and want to play some roulette? The first and the most common mistake is not setting a bank roll limit. Before going to any casino you have to decide to yourself how much you can afford to spend in the casino. Take this sum you can afford and leave all your credit cards and the rest of your money at home. If you have spent all the money you had you’d better leave the casino and occupy yourself with something different. The second and the most amusing mistake is that players don’t know the rules of the game they play. So, before going to the casino and playing any game make sure you know the rules, all possible bets and etiquette. The reason of losing can be the fact that players don’t know the game well enough. In some casinos players are offered different kinds of alcohol drinks for free. Drinking impairs your judgement and gets you emotionally involved within the game thus losing feels worse, and most importantly you won't be able to play using scientifically proven strategies that shrink the odds of the casino winning. The next most common mistake is drinking alcohol during the game. Try not to drink if you play or plan to play at the casino. In differebt casinos players win differently. Maybe you play in a wrong casino. You can always find a better casino with better odds, bonuses, promotions and conditions for players. The last mistake is spread among new players. They don’t know well how to play and they believe that they can win if they stick to the strategy of other players. This is the most stupid mistake. Play your own way and never stick to strategies of other gamblers.
