The James Bond Roulette Strategy

The James Bond roulette system is based on a staking plan used by Bond himself in one of Ian Fleming’s books. The strategy didn't appear in any of the James Bond films, only in the books, where he also used the Labouchere roulette strategy.

How to play the James Bond Roulette System

The main objective of this system is to cover a large number of outcomes in such a way that will still guarantee a profit with each win. The only losses occur when a low number result appears.

The Bond System is actually straightforward. Like many betting strategies, it’s derived from the Martingale Roulette System, but it builds its strategy upon it.

The player needs to bet $14 on high numbers (19-36), $50 on six numbers 13-18 (see the picture), and $10 on zero as an insurance.

Even a totally inexperienced player can begin to see the advantage of using the James Bond system. The player place wagers that cover nearly the entire roulette wheel, aiming for one of for three profitable outcomes.

Possible outcomes:

• If a number from 19 to 36 comes out, the player will have a profit of $8.
• If one of the 6 numbers from 13 to 18 comes out, the player will have a profit of $10.
• If Zero comes out, the player will have $16 profit.
• If a number between 1-12 occurs the player loses.

With each spin, the probability of winning is approximately 64%.

At this point, you’re probably wondering what this has to do with the Martingale Strategy. After all, that system is all about outside bets and is way simpler than this one; at no point so far have you been asked to double up on any losing bets, though that – in fact – is exactly what you’re advised to do if a number between 1-12 occurs.
