Those of you googly-eyed enough to play roulette on a regular basis probably know this already, but for amateurs who go to the casinos and are used to using systems like betting on your grandmother’s birthday or the date you lost your virginity, may wanna try the 8/5 betting style. Casino Buzz breaks it down this way:
The 8/5 system is a simple little betting method used exclusively in roulette and mostly in Monaco by tourist ladies with purple hair. You bet on the same eight numbers consecutively for five times. However, if your number hits on the first spin, you drop that eight number group and pick another set of numbers. For instance, if you’re betting $1 on each number, then your total amount wagered is $8. If one of your numbers hits, you win $35, with a net gain of $27.

See? Easy-peasy. Before you know it, you’ll be $27 richer and splayed out on a buffet table made of cheese.
