How does the Martingale System Work?
The system is designed for wagers that have 50 % chance of winning, for example a coin toss or a black-red bet in roulette (because of the green slots on a roulette wheel the chance of winning is actually 47.37 % and not 50 %.) The basic idea of the Martingale Roulette System is that a player doubles his bet after every lost wager. If the first bet is $5 on red, and the ball lands in a black or green pocket, the player then bets $10. If the next spin also has the wrong outcome, the player doubles the bet again. This continues until the player wins. When the player wins, he will have gained the amount of his first wager. Let’s say the player first lost $5 and then lost $10, but won when he bet $20. His total wagers are $35, but his winnings are $40 (including the bets) – in other words, a profit of $5. This might seem to be a waterproof system – and it is – under certain conditions: The player must have (almost) unlimited funds, because in the long run, there will be abnormal streaks. S
