Keel's Original Recipe

Just to recap........ Not sure what peoples views are for the BEST betting scheme on the ECs but as far as bet selection goes, the second last outcome is a winner, in my opinion. Maybe simply flat betting, nothing complicated?

Like I said, if it gets this far as a bad run >>

R....... No longer than this, I would switch to odd/even and STAY on that until you get the same bad situation. Then switch BACK to red/black.

and you are not playing low/high? why?

[MrJ]

No reason. You dont mean all three EC's at once? (lol) I do the colors until I get in a jam, then switch to odd/even.........then back again.

BOTH of those at once will not have the same bad run, which means if one does, the OTHER one will not, can not.

no, not 3 at same time:)

and about flat bet.. ok, say you are down 17 units, how do you think it is best to recover? As it should be played with higher units and "hit and run" not all night long i think.

[MrJ]

Like I said, not sure of the BEST way to play the EC's. There are 429 different ways, bettors feel their way is best. (lol) I'm all ears.

Huge difference between HOW to bet something and THE bet selection itself.

Here's number 430

If I were to play an EC style bet I would go with this (00 Wheel)

It's actually a 15 number bet so not quite an EC in it's purest form (although you could easily add a few numbers if you must)

0,2,5,7,9,11,14,17,20,23,26,28,30,32,35 (remember 00 wheel)

There are variations of this that muddy the waters on payouts if you need to run a progression but don't have sufficient bankroll.

Progression players with small bank might start with split 0/00 (I know adds the 00 and dilutes the bet plus takes you to the other side of the wheel) Split 2/5, Street 7,8,9, Split 11/14, Split 17/20, Split 23/26, Street 28,29,30, Split 32/35 (maybe play 2 units on the streets...all personal preference stuff.   Then go to the 15 numbers...then start stacking the 15 numbers as necessary.

If you had a really small bank and needed to start low...Your first bet would be 2nd column (you pick how many units)...the two streets and the 0/00 split

I haven't looked at it deeply because I just don't play this many numbers... but if I was... I would likely look at some of the work Turner recently did on EC's and see how it translated either on a follow the last or before the last basis.
