Playing Roulette – Set yourself goals,
With any game of chance, especially roulette, there are going to be times when you win, and unfortunately times when you lose. Hopefully the latter being less frequent than the first. Having the correct mindset before play and setting pre determined goals for each session of play can provide players with a unique advantage over the more recreational player.
Roulette is ultimately a game. One would hope that everyone playing roulette does so to have some fun, while at the same time winning a little money. If playing roulette become a chore or disrupts your thought process it can result in some very negative results. Clouded judgement, rash decisions, and greed are only a few of the emotions that can cause players to lose substantial amounts of money. That same money could lead to a profitable playing session if a player remains calm and relaxed.
Setting yourself goals, targets and loss limits is crucial when managing your gaming finances. A disciplined roulette player will be aware that for every winning session of roulette, there will inevitably be a losing session to balance out the good and bad luck. The key to successful roulette play is maximising those winnings sessions, while minimising loses when things go the other way.
The First goal any roulette player should set is the most undesirable. What is your loss limit for this session of play? This is simply setting yourself a limit to how much money you can comfortably afford to lose at the table without it making to large a dent to your gaming bankroll. Remember, yodays losses might be tomorows wins. Dont risk losing funds that can be used another time.
The second goal is a little more positive, if not a little confusing. When do I walk away with my winnings? Sounds bizzare doesnt it? Many recreational players that find themselves on a winning session, often get over confident and make larger bets, or continue playing through those winning sessions and inevitably give back all that sessions winnings, to either break even, or fall back into a losing session. The one thing that many casino’s rely on is players greed. Set yourself a target, and when that target is achieved, walk away and cash in that profit. For example, if you start play with £100 at the table, set yourself an amount higher than your starting capital, perhaps £150, then when you reach that amount, give yourself a patt on the back and stop play.
The third goal is one many recreational players struggle with, and for good reason. What to do if you reach your goal but are still winning? There will be occassions when your goals have been reached, and your plan suggests it is time to leave the table and bank those winnings but “Lady Luck” is still shining on you and the winnings appear to be never ending. As with the goal above you have £100 with which to play, your £150 goal has been surpassed, what should you do now? Many would suggest that the idea of walking away would be a good option, as profit is still a profit, but a small modification of your goal can result in more profits, without running into a loss. Now you have the amount you aimed to win, securely in your account, you may choose to play on. To do so you could adopt a new loss limit, and raise your winning target amount. Of the £150 you have won so far, £50 of that is profit (for the day), you could choose to play with £25 or £30 of those profits in the hope of winning further. The key to this strategy is having the discipline to notice when the wins are no longer as frequent and stop play.
