Roulette - 1st and 3rd Column Bets

One bet of 2 pieces (or what you choose) on the 1st column and one bet of the same on the 3rd column covers most of the red numbers on the table.

One bet of 2 pieces (or what you choose) on the black will provide insurance for occurrence of black.

This betting system covers nearly all numbers except for the 4 red numbers in the middle column and the zero (and double zero in American Roulette).

If the result is a red number in either the 1st or 3rd column, the player only breaks even. If the result is red in the middle column the player loses 6 pieces (or your stake accordingly).

If the result is black and in the middle column, the player loses 2 pieces. If the result is a black in the 1st or 3rd column, the player only wins 4 pieces (or according to your bet)
