Not quite. If that was the case, the house wouldn't win as often. "American Roulette" tables have "0" and "00", that scues the odds in favor of the house. Max payout on a 36 number table is 35:1, but there are really 38 numbers. The house always wins in the end.
In regards to the "Sledgehammer" technique, basically you bet the outside lines. You place 4 seperate bets between:
7 & 10 (on the line)
13 & 16
19 & 22
25 & 28
By doing so, you are covering a good majority (7-30) of the board. Thus the name, Sledgehammer. The payout on this bet is 5:1. So if you bet $25 per line and hit, you win $75 ($125+$25-$75).
The other technique I want to try is called the "3Q's" or the "Z" bet. This one is easier to understand, but you have to have faith in the probability of the numbers I'm going to mention below. With this bet, you wager the same amount in 3 different spots on the board. Let's use $10 as an example, so you place a $10 chip on:
-corner of 10, 11, 13, 14
-corner of 17, 18, 20, 21
-corner of 25, 26, 28, 29
It's called a "Z" bet because if you look at where you put your chips, it almost looks like a "Z" pattern. Payout on this one is 8:1.
Remember, gambling should always be treated as entertainment and chances of any of this stuff working is completely random. But I enjoy reading about it and trying it out and you should too.
Good luck
