Chris Boyd seemed to be the craziest gambler in history. In January of 1994, Chris followed his dream to the casinos of Las Vegas for the ultimate roulette spin. Chris had saved 0,000 over a three year period, and wanted to put it all on one spin of the wheel. He searched around Las Vegas for a casino that would actually take his bet. With refusals from most of the major casinos, Chris was referred to Binion’s Horseshoe Club. The Horseshoe Club had a limit of 0,000 on a red/black bet, but they agreed to accept his wager. 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 Las Vegas. They book their room in the Flamingo, see some shows, and bet a little money on the roulette. However, this is an expensive, once a year type proposition, and many people might not be able to afford to go to Vegas. And what if you are bored and want to play some roulette, right there and right now? 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. When you spend your entire bank roll move on and find something else to do, don't bother getting emotionally involved with the games you're playing because it's the quickest way to spend much more money! The reason of losing can be the fact that players don’t know the game well enough. The casino loves to fill their guests and customers with free booze of all types and kinds. 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. You might play in a wrong casino, which is the reason of your low profit. You can always find a better casino with better odds, bonuses, promotions and conditions for players. Players who haven’t work out their own strategy of playing think that the way other gamblers play can help them to win. This is a very serious mistake. Play your own way and never stick to strategies of other gamblers.
