Pivot Strategy Description

History has not preserved the names of inventors of this simple betting system. However, it is so elementary that various players have offered such an idea at different times.

The betting system is based on the well-known observation that during a series of spins equal to the number of numbers on the wheel (thirty-seven for European and thirty-eight for the American version, respectively), not all numbers come up. About two-thirds of the numbers from 0 to 36 come up for this period, i.e., some numbers may appear at least twice over this short session.

The pivot strategy is established on this suggestion.

The player should wait for the number that comes up twice and start betting on it.

The author does not mention the bankroll size, but many followers of this system believe that one cycle requires at least thirty-five units. Others try to play depending on the time limit (for example, two hours).

Pivot System Step-by-Step

Let's discuss the actions that should be undertaken while playing according to this system.

  1. First, you have to observe the gameplay. So, look for a table with customers.
  2. You will have to memorize or write down the appeared numbers. It seems quite challenging to remember them, so we recommend that users write them down (for example, using your mobile phone to avoid the administration's attention).
  3. As soon as one of the numbers has come up twice, you start wagering the same amount on it. You will be in the black if it shows up again within the next thirty-four spins. You'll neither win nor lose if it appears in the thirty-fifth spin.
  4. At the same time, you have to mark the numbers that show up on the wheel. As soon as your cycle with the current number ends, you should choose another number to wager on.
  5. If you have lost in one session, it is unnecessary to keep betting on this number. Select another one.

It is up to you to decide whether to increase a bet after the unprofitable cycle or not.

Summary

In a single session consisting of thirty-six or thirty-eight spins, some numbers will not appear, and others will come up several times.

Does it mean that you will be able to determine the lucky numbers? Absolutely, not.

We will remind you that the outcomes of spins are not related to each other, which mathematicians have proved.

Moreover, all numbers will approximately equally show up in the long run if the wheel is balanced, has no defects, and operates properly. So, do not rely too much on this system. It can diversify the gameplay but cannot help you to beat.

  • The advantage of this betting system includes its exceptional simplicity and volatility.
  • The monotony of gameplay can be considered to be its disadvantage. It is not the most amusing and exciting pastime to bet the same bet in each spin.
