Beating the Wheel by Russell T. Barnhart

The system that's won more than six million - from La Vegas to Monte Carlo.

With 170 wheels in Las Vegas, 144 in Atlantic City, thousands in Europe, and hundreds in the Far East, roulette undoubtedly the world's most popular casino game. But can the game be beaten, except by luck? Yes, says Russell Barnhart, an expert in gambling strategies and a roulette winner for more than thirty years. In Beating the Wheel, he shares his valuable strategy.

Barnhart bases his findings on tens of thousands of spins of a biased wheel - one which behaves a certain way due to damage. Although every casino discards dice and cards daily, one can afford to replace an expensive roulette wheel until after it has provided years of service. The unavoidable wear and tear over the years causes defects that players can capitalize on.

Barnhart advises players to watch a number of spins before investing, noting which numbers repeat frequently. Using this knowledge, astute players will win regularly.

In Beating the Wheel, the average player is taught how to use a unique system developed by the author, based on escalating small bets. No special training is required, and the system can be learned quickly and easily.
