How $5 Per Spin System Works
Before we start, we must point out that this can be a costly strategy. Since it’s a progressive betting system, you will need a substantial starting bankroll, and we also suggest choosing a table with high betting limits.
Now, let’s see how the system works in practice. The original source explains that the system tries to cover as much of the betting grid as possible. So, this is what you should do:
- Initial Bet: The session starts by placing a total of $25 across 30 numbers. This is typically done by making five line bets of $5, with each line covering six numbers. So, you’re covering 30 numbers in total. Now, there are two possible scenarios: a win and a loss.
- Post-Win: If you win, continue with the same numbers and bet amount. Bet $25 on the same numbers again.
- Post-Loss: If you lose, maintain your selected numbers but raise the bet amount to $300 in total, enhancing each line bet to $60. This is a significant jump, so you should have the bankroll to support it.
For the next cycle, you will repeat the same scenario. However, you should consider that you’ll need $3,600 if you lose twice in a row.
Check out the image below to see what bets you can place.
The whole purpose of this strategy is to cover as many fields as possible and increase your winning chances. The standard European roulette wheel has 37 pockets, so if you cover 30 numbers, the chances of winning are around 81%.
The system relies on the fact that you have great winning chances, so the chances of a loss are minimal. If you win the first round, you’ll earn $5 in profit. If you win the second round, you’ll win $60 in profit (minus the amount you used for the first spin).
The probability of losing two times in a row with the $5 Per Spin system is just 0.81%, which means that it’s very unlikely that you’ll have to wager $3,600 per spin. However, the possibility shouldn’t be excluded, so this is not a risk-free strategy.
The minimum recommended starting bankroll for the strategy is $325 - a bankroll that would cover the first and the second bet. If you lose both bets, you can either count your losses and try again, or bet try to chase losses and wager $3,600 across six line bets. Statistically, you will come across such situation at some point, so the $5 Per Spin is not a good long-term solution, but we’ll test it with a simulation to see how it fares.
Testing The $5 Per Spin System
As complex as it sounds, the $5 Per Spin strategy is rather simple. It all revolves around the first bet, which is really easy to place. In case the first try fails, chances are that the second one won't. That’s why we found it easy to prepare a simulation to test this strategy.
For our simulation, we used 5 players. Each one of them started with a bankroll of 320 - which we found to be the most suitable option. The goal was to reach 1,000 spins without losing twice, and we used the bet values that the system suggests. There was one rule, though: if you experience two losses in a row, you’re out of the game. So, the maximum a player could wager in a single bet was $300. Once they lose this bet too, they’re out of the game.
In the graph below, you can see what happened to each one of the players. Note that the X axis shows the number of spins, while the Y axis shows the bankroll of each of the players.
As you can see from the graph, none of the players came even close to 1,000 spins. The player that got the closest was Player 5, who experienced two losses in a row on spin 88.
- Player 1was out on spin 41, when they lost twice in a row. The total bankroll before this spin was $595, but the second loss in a row dropped them to a total bankroll of $270. This means that he ended the game with a net loss of $50.
- Player 2was out by spin 38. Similarly to Player 1, he lost twice in a row around the same time, but they had managed to acquire a bankroll of $605 by then. They also finished the game with a net loss of $40, with a total bankroll of $280.
- ForPlayer 3was the unluckiest of the bunch. They experienced two losses in a row by spin 26, and even though they had managed to increase their bankroll to $545 by then, they ended the game with $220, which signifies a total loss of $100.
- Player 4managed to increase their bankroll to $775 by spin 57, when they lost twice in a row and finished the simulation with $450 in total, and $130 in profit.
- Player 5was the last one to drop out. They experienced two losses in a row by spin 88, but by that point, they had already acquired a bankroll of $1,000. This means that they ended the game with $675, out of which $355 profit.
Limitations of the $5 Per Spin System
The system has some inherent limitations when it comes to long sessions. A double loss is inevitable at some point, and, as you can see from our simulation, it’s very likely that it will occur before the 100th session. However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t end in a net profit. If you manage to win more than double the bankroll amount, you end in a net profit regardless of when the two consecutive losses in a row occur.
The problem with the $5 Per Spin strategy is when you lose twice rather early in the game. Roulette is a game of chance, and, as we discussed above, regardless of how small the 0.81% chance seems, it is bound to happen at some point. So, you will either spend all your bankroll, or you will be forced to make an uncomfortably large bet. If the double loss occurs earlier than the ~50th round, you will most likely end in a net loss.
The biggest problem with the $5 Per Spin strategy is that you are always playing against the same house edge, so in the long run, the casino will always win. There is no guarantee about when a losing streak will occur, so that’s the biggest risk when using this strategy.
Conclusion
$5 Per Spin can be a very effective betting strategy, and it does increase your chances of winning. The main drawbacks are the facts that you require a larger bankroll to start with, and you might be forced to make uncomfortably large bets. Also, you might experience two consecutive losses early in the session, which means that you will suffer a more significant loss.
Other than that, this is a low-risk strategy that’s simple to comprehend and implement, and it has the potential to make you a profit. Just keep in mind that no betting system guarantees winning, and that’s the case with the $5 Per Spin strategy too.
