Will the online casino's ban me for this?
Discussion
having been a bit bored over the last few weekend's, I've taken to trying to make a bit of cash with the online bookmakers/casino's etc.
I have completed most of the decent matched betting offers.
I have now taken to roulette, which Im actually doing quite well at. Ie keep spinning take note of sequence's etc, then when time is right, bung £4 on red, if it loses, double it to £8 on red etc until i win.
I am making a reasonable amount, although i accept there is a risk of getting 10 blacks in a row etc.
However i am yet to lose, so surely there must be alarm bell's ringing somewhere notifying my wins and no loses. I can't see how it could be illegal etc though.
But are they likely to ban me, and put my funds on hold etc?
Im pretty sure if i did this in a real casino, i would be shown the door pretty quick

What makes you think there is a "right time" - the wheel has no memory - even online?Vaud said:

I know it should be completely random, and its the exact same chance of winning each roll.But sometimes it comes out nice and random Ie R,B,R,R,B,B,R,B,B,R Etc
Then others it goes like: RRRRRRRRRBRRRBBBR. I have counted up to 12 red's in a row.
So its obviously better when nice and random.

It's random. You may come out with more cash than you started, you may not.
Sometimes you will get some reds in a row, sometimes blacks, sometimes a mixture. You've simply been lucky so far.
Or the online games have a horrendously inbuilt bias, especially in trial accounts. Sometimes you will get some reds in a row, sometimes blacks, sometimes a mixture. You've simply been lucky so far.
Possible, but I would go with "luck"

Sounds like you've cracked the code, and together with your magic intuition have found a foolproof method! You should write a book R1 Indy said:

Nope, they'd happily let you keep playing, because eventually you'll reach the table limit, then the maths comes unstuck. Out of interest, what's the table limit at the online casino you're playing on?
Sure someone will come along and disprove what i'm about to post and correct my maths but;
Did a little chart with values and outcomes.
If you went all the way to 9 rounds you would need a total bank of £2044.
You will fail 9 times in a row 0.25% of the time - i.e. 1 in 400
But to break even you need 1/512.
If the game worked out in accordance with probabilities then you would only lose £444.
Infinite bank roll > doubling up is OK. Without one you will come unstuck in an expensive way sooner or later. The earlier you quit the less you lose but the more likely a loser is to come along.

You might want to research probability.
The wheel has no memory. Probability of the the next spin being red or black is independent of the previous spin.
