Woodturning and carpentry are among the oldest and noblest of professions. Many carpenters are blessed with the gift of long, productive lives.

Yes, the roulette wheel can be beaten short term, and no, it can not be beaten long term. The mathematical advantage is and always will be on the side of the casino. There will always be winners but this does not concern the casinos because there will also be losers and the casino's mathematical " house edge " will always ensure that there are more losers than winners over the long term. Do a google search and you will find many websites and system sellers promoting their "unbeatable" roulette systems, and telling you how they gave up their job to do this full-time. Please don't be fooled. Roulette, by it's very nature is a game of pure chance. We can not apply any skill or judgement to predict the outcome of the next spin, nor can our actions influence the game in any way.

If anyone tries to convince you that they have a...more
