was looking for a sit and go and the top four on the list were £11, £22, £33, and £55 roulette all in 1 hand double or nothing. The same player was on all 4 waiting for opponents. Out of curiosity i watched the £11 game, he won with 9-2 against 4-2, up £9. Next game £22 he got JQ against AK and lost. In the next game, another £11 his opponent said in chat 'same again?' I didnt say anything because its their money, they can do as they like, however i cant for the life of me see the fun or the point of this, i mean he had £121 waiting on the roulette games and £11 of that was skys rake lol.

    i would guess there's some dodgy financial reason for doing this,a money expert would probably know exactly what.

    Pure rake machine for sky.

    Played a few myself whilst waiting for a table to fill up. Soon got bored.

    If you want a 50/50 go to sky vegas and bet on red/black on the roulette. At least you save the rake.

    Actually you don't. Red/Black isn't 50/50. I haven't seen the sky roulette but there is normally at least one neutral on the wheel. That's the rake and therefore it's not 50/50, but I do take your point Hale.

    Sorry, I forgot the green, however, you can actually bet on that as well so the correct odds are...

    47.27% for red or black and 5.26% on green

    Jesus, I sound like merenovice!!!

    Still cheaper than a rake.

    Wheel's with more than one green are a bigger con than the lottery.

    Er, if there are 18 reds and 18 blacks and one green, it's 48.65% and 2.70% and if there are 18 reds and 18 blacks and two greens, it's 47.37% and 5.26%.

    Sky Vegas roulette 50/50.

    It's more like 75/25 against what you bet.

    Not that I'd know.... :(

    as i said,im not a financial expert,but i see this type of thing happening and have to believe there's a bigger picture to such an "apparent" disregard for money.
