Why not talk a bit of roulette

[Priyanka]

Once someone I admire asked if the roulette table is square instead of a rectangle can you win?

Well. Interesting I thought. Then came someone else who I also admire, it doesn't matter what the carpet says the ball is rolling in the wheel and not on the carpet.

What is it with shapes.  There are diamonds in the wheel.  Rectangles in the wheel (or are the pockets squares). A cross on the central stem.  Very interesting shapes.  The ball itself, now am quite commonly seeing the white ones in London, earlier it used to be only the cream ones.

Is it a game of shapes and sizes or is it a game of colours and numbers. Why it cannot be both, why does it has to be only one. I wish i knew the answers.  I decided to take a punt and ask the dealers at hippodrome.

The answer was simple - Roulette wheel is valuable because that decides the outcome. But the carpet is invaluable as that is where you place your chips and we swipe It up.

I've pondered this many times. I don't really know. The "complete a street" system is interesting - but is there any advantage around it? The carpet as I see it helps us because we can group certain bets cheaply so that we can play a system with less chance of reaching the table limits because have freedom to express our bet selections more cheaply. This then leads onto playing games as a matrix of results recorded in a square or rectangle... is there some way of taking advantage there? Is a matrix comparable to playing shapes on the carpet?

Complete a street is just a clever way to pick bets.

Kinda like any other that uses past spins or a trigger
