D’Alembert Roulette System
The D’Alembert is one of the safest strategy you can use because even though you increase your bets after a loss, it’s at much smaller rate than the Martingale. This is an even chance betting strategy; it can be used on red-black, odd-even and 1-18/19-36. The math and theory behind the D’Alembert roulette system makes it unsuited to the dozens/columns and the inside bets.
All you do with this strategy is you pick a starting bet, and then you increase your bets by one after a loss, and decrease them by one after a win. The theory is that once you have as many wins as losses, you will be in profit by the amount of bets you’ve placed. Let’s go through a quick example starting with a bet of 5:
- Bet 5 and lose
- Bet 6 and lose
- Bet 7 and win
- Bet 6 and lose
- Bet 7 and win
- Bet 6 and win
- Bet 5 and lose
- Bet 6 and win
The math for what we have just done is as follows:
In the above sequence, there were 4 losses and 4 wins, but despite this, you are in profit by 4. This is the golden rule with the D’Alembert – If the number of wins is the same as the number of losses, you will always be in profit by the number of bets.
Advantages Of The D’Alembert
I don’t think any roulette strategy can be described as safe because they all carry element of risk, but this one is the safest of them all. For this you are required to have a relatively low bankroll, and there is no danger of hitting the table limit.
Disadvantages Of The D’Alembert
The chances for a potential win are low, something that is expected in a relatively low risk system. You’re also relying on winning as many bets as you lose, which isn’t likely to happen over the long term of play.
With the D’Alembert you face another problem, the fact that sometimes long losing streak is possible when greatly increasing your bets. If this occurs, you will encounter a setback that can only be removed by entering equal winning run.
