Simulating 5,000 sessions…

Every roulette betting system is a way of arranging your bets over time. Martingale doubles after a loss to recover in one hit; D'Alembert nudges the stake up one unit after a loss and down one after a win; Fibonacci walks up its sequence on losses; Paroli presses winners instead of losers; Labouchère crosses numbers off a list until the list is empty. They feel different, and their bankroll curves look different.

None of them changes the house edge. On a single-zero wheel every even-money bet wins 18 times in 37 and loses 19, for a 2.70% edge; a double-zero wheel is 5.26%. A system only redistributes that fixed expected loss across time — usually into a long series of small wins and an occasional catastrophic one.

This simulator runs your chosen system thousands of times with the parameters you set and reports the distribution: how often the bankroll is wiped out before the session ends, where the median session finishes, and how wide the best and worst cases are. Run a single session too, and watch the curve build.

FAQ

Which roulette system is best?
For expected value, none — they all return the same 2.70% (or 5.26%) loss over the long run. They differ only in variance: Martingale wins most sessions by a little and loses rare sessions by a lot; flat betting has the widest, most symmetric spread; D'Alembert and Fibonacci sit between.
Why does Martingale bust so often in the simulator?
Because doubling after each loss hits the table limit or your bankroll after a run of six or seven losses, which happens far more often than people expect over a few hundred spins. When it busts it gives back every prior small win at once.
Can any staking plan beat roulette?
No. As long as each individual spin is negative expectation, every finite combination of those spins is also negative expectation. Only a biased wheel or dealer signature — not a staking pattern — can change that.
