Hi gambo
Without going into the details of my "sordid" life, I have a life long fascination with roulette. I once lived in Monte Carlo for 8 months funded by playing roulette.Although I have given up playing it many years ago, I bought the book in question out of interest.
As Mr J pointed out most of the systems in the book are about finding a biased wheel. The rest are straight progressive systems and some interesting theories on the power of positive thinking.
I have several spreadsheets with 100,000's of actual roulette sequences and ran their theories through the sequences. They all lost.
Roulette can not be broken mathamatically due to the doubling table limit which is usually set at 6 to 8 times the minimum bet.
As a game it is a fun thing to do on occassion. As a way to make money, like all casino games it will get you in the end.
It is an interesting read but in my opinion it is best to give he flick.
I filed the book somewhere in my office and if you want further info I'll try and dig it out.
