Summary: Systems, Knowledge of the Game, Money Management
Review: For some reason, people think Roulette is a silly game. Wrong!!! It is a game that offers hundreds of systems because of all of the possible combinations of bets. This book, just like all of my writings,zero in on Money Management and Discipline for the systems I show you. My three favorites are: (1)Regression System on outside numbers, (2) Action Number System (3) Labouchere System. They're snap city to learn and will give you a new insight into a potentially profitable casino game. Did I mention that the key is MONEY MANAGEMENT and DISCIPLINE?

Summary: Repetitive and redundant
Review: John Patrick has written an article and stretched it into a book. He keeps saying the same things over and over...we get the point! There are much better roulette books on the market.

Summary: don't pretend to win in the long run with this book
Review: Patrick's book has helped me in a major way to quit throwing money around the layout, and play in a controlled manner that's still fun -- because I've won 7 of 9 casino visits since! I don't break the bank -- but I don't lose my usual $300-$400 anymore either. This book is far superior to Scoblete's, offering actual inside numbers to play in order to spread numbers around the wheel, excellent suggestions on outside bets, pros and cons of betting systems, regression bets, money management, discipline -- highly recommended for those who see that Scoblete's riff -- "biased" wheels -- is something only those looking for a ridiculous "angle" will believe.

Summary: Become a winner if you want to
Review: Roulette, contrary to popular belief, is a game that offers various opportunities to win despite the house edge of (ugh) at least 5%. There are two reasons for this. One, the number of options for betting open to the customer offer great hedge opportunities and two, it is a streaky game. Furthermore, if you can find a wheel with just one zero (and there are some in both Reno and Vegas), you cut that house edge in half on the outside bets. Learn to beat this game with the Regression system in conjunction with hedges or with the Action-Number system, a system that spreads your money around the entire wheel, giving you the best chance to win. This knowledge alone is great, but it is Patrick's philosophy that is the real meat and potatoes of being competitive. There is simply the most logical approach to beating this game written in this book. There are critcisms that this book is redundant in terms of the philosophy that Mr. Patrick teaches. I have a reply to these silly criticisms. Winning isn't complicated, it's just real hard to do. Get this book and open up another opportunity for yourself to be a winner during your next trip to the casinos.

Summary: put your 14$ in garbage, it worth more !
Review: This book is based on "martingale" ? There no wayyou can win with this systeme.This is one of the most poorlywritten books I have ever read.The system is quite simple and could beexplained clearly in a few pages of charts, but the authors have no idea how to make a clear explanation. It would take a conscious effort to make a simple idea any more confusing than has been done in this book. Unfortunately, the authors make it as difficult to learn as possible.There is a fair amount of information for me, but, again, this information is better-presented in other volumes. I would strongly recommend that players at all levels go to another book. This book is not simple to read!

Review: This books explains a lot progressions and money management in roulette, but none of the strategies in this book will give you and edge over the house. It's for recreational players only, who want to have fun only.

Summary: Great Introduction to the game and money management
Review: This is the fourth John Patrick book that I have read. It is true that every book of his has a lot of repetitive information on money management. But... I have won consistently at the tables in Vegas over the last 2 years using his system. His advanced craps and blackjack books are must reading for any casino gambler.

Summary: Good Book
Review: When it comes to roulette John Patrick is on the money in his advice concerning money management. Although I do not think that this book is the equal of Frank Scoblete's Spin Roulette Gold, I do think he spends a lot of time explaining one of the most important facets of gaming - money management. Worth a read.
