Bank Roll?

[nottophammer]

With 15 pages to look over,  i'll just ask.

How many units should you take to the table? 100? 1000? or 4000?
Has it not been said most players do not have a big enough bank roll.

So how much

[RouletteGhost]

Typically when i play with $5 units i brint $200

For a weekend in AC $1000

So 40 units to play with, now we hear the big dogs say they buy in for, cough, $4000 and use big value chips, cough, $25 unit, not many then, 160. Can see why no more than 4 #'s

For any system and not advantage play (signature,  computers,  VB etc) I think anything less than 1000 units depth is doomed.  I actually would prefer to play with bots online more hours with even smaller.  Like 0,10 euro unit and 500 1000 euro bankroll (5000-10000+ units depth)  Then I MAY have any small chance

You need huge depth inside the table limits to have a chance at roulette

I play conservatively and not every spin and i switch machines after 1 win

Im very careful lol

Yes on the FOBT in licensed shops you must never play with £1 units with a max bet of £100, i use £200 with £200 back up,using .25p unit.
Those non-hit averages help.

Good to move after a win. Do you know if the machines give there own #'s or are all machines getting #'s from same server
speculation here,but they think the FOBT can give its own #'s now as when 2 players hit the button at same time, the same number came, but this does not happen so much now,so could be getting the # directly from the machine.

My local casino has airball and rng

Its under debate whether or not the airball is truly random

There are different airball machines and diff brands

Only 40 units depth??? WOW

Always remember, UNIT depth and spin DEPTH are two different things. I like to look at (prior to going) how many SPINS can I get with my BR assuming NO hits. What is the minimum number of spins before going home pissed off?

Bet small and see if your having a bad day. If your lucky then continue playing small until your good enough to play big. Managing loses is good for bank roll.

[nottophammer]

I guess no one knows the size of bank roll we should use, as only 4 members gave a comment. I even took the finger of Mr J's comment as he's right.

As not a top dog with 1000's to use, i have usually a 1000 units to use, but think it should go to 2000 units. Which would be recreational money, not the mortgage money.

So any comments on the size needed, iggiv and le chiffe talked of it but where?

Depends on a ton of things

Betting inside or outside...negative or positive progressions...or both?

How do you play?

If I am betting 2 or 3 inside numbers...and I play with both negative and positive progressions...3000-5000 units would be reasonable although if things weren't looking good I would never approach laying the whole amount.  But if I was down 1000 it wouldn't be a big deal with 2-4 left in my pocket...if I only took 1000 it changes your perspective if you're drawn down say 800.

You have to have enough in your pocket compared to your bet size (and potential bet size) that the house's seemingly unlimited funding advantage is realistically nullified by your approach.

If I can start at 1 unit inside and the table max is 50u inside...I can carry that quite a ways on a negative progression and exploit it with a positive one.  The problem is...if you have 3000-5000 as your pocket (then assuming your real gambling bank is 20000-75000)...do wins at 1, 3 and even 5u make it worthwhile.
