as has been posted, this is not a winning game. in the long run, the house always wins.


don't bet more than you are willing to lose

I don't know anything about hte Jubilee wheel, but I do know a little bit about roulette. if it works exactly the same, then I would have to highly urge anyone reading to NOT try this method, like he said if you're out of credits and desperate you can take a gamble, but among professional gamblers roulette is known as one of the games to stay the HECK away from, the odds are so stacked against you it's ridiculous. There's a reason it's traditionally a rich mans game. Only they can afford to loset hat much at it.

yeah, its 37, i tried it earlier. which means there is no house advantage.
on a table with 0 and 00 the house advantage is about 5.25%.
on a 0 only table its about 2.75%.
meaning the house takes either 5.25% or 2.75% of your winnings. which is why its a 35:1 payout instead of 37/38:1.

0 and 00 tables are mostly in america. 0 tables are common in europe.
so if you happen to see a 0 table, play it over a 00 table. you win more money when you do win.

remember though, when you play roulette, dont touch your chips till the dealer removes the dolly.
they dont like that at all, and can get you removed from the floor.




Bug fixes. Heh! Smuggling. Heh! A Jedi craves not these things.

My SWG Observations

If they stopped the expansions for one year and gave quality revamps to the professions that need it most, many people would resubscribe.
With all the resubs, and the new players, there would then be plenty of money to hire enough people to do 2-4 quality revamps per year plus 1-2 larger expansions per year and/or 2-4 smaller expansions per year, and not give the BigWigs a pay cut. (Possibly even an increase)

Well, i never said it was viable for everyone, and there is a risk you can lose everything you earnt.

However, if you're wanting something different for 10 minutes or more, just have fun with it. I often sit at a table when i want to unwind and play. I've made millions of credits from them since they put them out for us many moons ago.
Used to draw quite a crowd back in the day.

Lots of people would stop in, after hearing my cheers of joy from win after win, then they'd sit down and find out what i was playing, then they too would get caught up in it.
When there's a lot of you playing, it can be a great way to pass the time, socialise and just get some general friendly fun going.

I wish there were more in game games for us to play. As i really enjoy these
