My name is Stephen Hu, and I am the original author of “A Solution of Roulette”. Here is my reply to some negative comments made by one or two gamblers recently.

1. The importance of my book is the proof of  the existence of “Non-randomness” in both American and European roulettes.  Once this has been proved.  Then, roulette is a man-made device, therefore, it may and can be beatable theoretically.

This is the first and most important step.  The next step is to find the practical solutions.  For doing that, I suggested several winning techniques, such as the red-odd versus black-even differential, etc.  But I never did intend to write a “complete winning guide” for all gamblers.

2. My book is a mathematical book rather than a gambling book.  To reduce the weight of gambling, I did omit one chapter “on best bets”. (You may check this with my publisher, Mr. Kemp of Professional Press).

Because, this bet is just placing two 12-number bet (i.e. two , columns) at the same time.  Its “expected value” is still negative, which is -0.1052, since for each individual bet it is always -0.0526 (it is 2/38 due to two zeros).  This is always the same for all roulette bets  and will never change.  As possible remedy, I suggest that you make your best bet horizontally rather than vertically.  This discussion is condensed into one paragraph in my concluding chapter.

Besides, yes, you  increase your chance by covering more numbers, (from 12/38 to 24/38).  But you are also betting $2 to win $1.  While for all other bets, you are betting $1 to win $1 or much more. This also should be considered.

3. I have European readers too.  For instance, you may google “Roulette und Spielbanken”  to see some German opinions.  They are objective.

4. My first printing sold out long time ago.  There is no sale in market now.  The second printing will be available soon.

P.S.  This is also my reply to Gambler Glen.  If you still have question, please check with your friend Steno.  He knows my work and be able to explain to you.
