The Dopey Experiment is another Roulette Betting System described by Andres Martinez, a lawyer and a reporter at Wall Street Journal, in his wonderful book "24/7: Living It Up and Doubling Down in the New Las Vegas." The system does not promise to make you rich or even to come out ahead. It is simply a way to have fun while gambling real money at the roulette table. The System has some superstitious pattern as well, with the magic numbers being engaged.

The rules of playing are very easy - with the Dopey Experiment, you take your roulette bankroll and divide it into 35 equal units. You then choose single number (as for Mr. Martinez, he picked his wife's birthday — 22), and bet one unit on that number for 35 uninterrupted spins of the roulette wheel.

The exact origins of Oscar’s Grind have unfortunately been lost, despite the fact that it is modern system, compared to other betting systems we have previously discussed. What we know is that it was first described in 1965, attributed to a gambler named Oscar. It is a progressive betting system based on cycles, where the player profits one betting unit at the end of each cycle. It's easy to remember and use and a huge bankroll is not needed to see it through.

Let’s see how it works: Oscar's Grind is best used with even money bets. You start betting with single unit bets on each successive loss, after an initial winning bet you increase your wager to two units. You keep wagering two units until another winning bet occurs.

As you’re already aware, Roulette is a casino game played with a wheel and a smooth ball, with French origins. In difference with the European counterpart, American roulette wheel has 38 slots, numbered from 1-36, colored either black or red, and the rest two are 0 and 00. This later, double zero, is the only thing (if not considering the odds that change due to its existence) that distinguishes American Roulette from the European one.
