• Stick to European roulette for better odds, as it has a lower house edge of 2.7% compared to American roulette’s 5.26%.
• Consider placing outside bets (red/black, odd/even) for a more consistent payout. These bets have nearly a 50% chance of winning.
• Set a budget and stick to it. Aim for a fun session rather than chasing big wins — after all, it’s about enjoyment.

For example, if you play with a £20 budget, placing £1 on red or black allows for 20 spins before running out of money, giving you a fair amount of playtime.

If you’re a high roller…

For those ready to wager larger sums, the strategies change. You’ll want to maximise both your potential wins and your betting strategy.

• Consider higher stakes on inside bets for larger payouts. Betting on single numbers can return 35 to 1, which is attractive for high rollers.
• Utilise the Martingale system cautiously. Doubling your bet after a loss can quickly increase your stake but be wary of table limits.
• Take advantage of live dealer bonuses, which can offer additional funds for your bets, increasing your playing time and potential winnings.

In my testing, I found that using bonuses effectively can significantly extend play sessions—sometimes by nearly 30%. This can be crucial for high rollers who seek to maximise every session.

If you mainly play live…

If live roulette is your game of choice, you’ll want to refine your strategies to increase your edge and enjoyment.

• Learn the dealer’s tendencies. Some dealers might have biases in their spins — a keen eye can give you an advantage.
• Mix betting strategies. Combining flat betting with an aggressive strategy can keep your gameplay dynamic and unpredictable.
• Keep track of hot and cold numbers. While roulette is ultimately a game of chance, some players believe certain numbers may appear more frequently.
• Utilise the chat feature. Engaging with the dealer and other players can provide insights and make the game more enjoyable.

What stood out to me was the community aspect of live roulette. Interacting with others not only makes the experience more enjoyable but can lead to insights you might not have considered.
