One to Avoid and One to Join

My only experience of a casino came just after I got my hands on Mrs Currie's legacy.

Henry, the landlord of the Badger and Bassoon heard about my good fortune and invited me along to a poker night to celebrate. I never really understood cards but it seemed like a nice touch. Henry told me to wait until I'd actually got the money so I did.

On the night it was very confusing. The pack only had 37 cards out of 52, but Henry had helpfully written on the back what they were. Well I was very unlucky, so he told me, and i ended up losing £5000 but the ale was in good form and Henry kept the pickled eggs flowing all night.

So when I came to try and make money on the net, I did a google search and all these 'foolproof roulette systems' came up. I was a little wary after my previous experience but it really seemed that it couldn't fail.

Essentially, you bet on one colour and if you lost, you doubled your stake until it came in. Then you repeated the process with the opposite colour. As a bit of a mathematician, I realised it should be foolproof. However, there was one problem.

The table had a maximum bet. I won a few quid but wasn't greedy at all, but on the second day the wrong colour came in seven times until I couldn't double any more because I'd exceeded the maximum bet and I lost my money.

There are few warnings about this particular scam so take heed.

That's enough of that - have a look at http://www.freemoneyteam.com/?11634 . I've made a bit on this and I'll tell you more about it tomorrow.
