101 Gambling Tips for the Avid Gambler
While many of the gambling strategies you were taught at Las Vegas may be applicable to online gambling but it is essential to be aware of important differences. However, if you are aware of the details surrounding the game you're playing and with a few tips for gambling from experienced players, you'll find gambling online is not only an exciting and thrilling experience bit also an opportunity to turn your hobby into a lucrative business.

Important Rules for Every Game

1. Never chase after your losses. Do not increase your bets simply in order to even things out; just increase your bets in the context of a pre-determined strategy.
2. Do not bet on any game that you aren't sure about. Make sure you understand it before you play.
3. Don't gamble and drink at the same time. It's difficult enough to win at gambling even without having dulled senses.
Money Management - General Guidelines
4. You will lose more often than you win, and the longer you play , the more likely it is that the fact will be. It's the same regardless of whether you're talking about hands of blackjack, rolls of the roulette wheel or throws of dice.
5. To win, you must maximize your wins while minimizing your losses.
6. You can learn and remember how likely you are to win the game you're playing.
7. Don't gamble using your "dear" money. Only bet with your "excessive" funds. That is, you should only play with money that you'll need or might need to cover your daily living expenses.
8. This is doubly important if you are playing online against other players. The minute you start gambling using "dear" money the other player will sense your heightened stress and play in a similar way - often threatening you out of a bet since they realize that you're more cautious when it comes to your "dear" money.
9. Stick to the stop loss amount. Divide your gambling bankroll into equal amounts. Each of these amounts should be split into four parts. If you fail to win one of the smaller amounts, switch tables or games or just stop for a moment. You should stop gambling if you lose all of the money.
10. Be calm and do not let your addiction to gambling lead you to gamble on your next allocation.
11. You can plan ahead. When you start a betting session, decide on the amount you would like to win (be realistic) and when you reach that point put the money away and walk away.
12. To safeguard your winnings you can take money out of your gambling bankroll occasionally and put it in a "do not touch" bankroll.
13. The money management systems will not ever beat the advantage of the house over the long term. You will always lose more frequently than you gain. The most important thing is that you must win more big bets, and lose fewer small bets.

Money Management - Positive Progression Systems

14. A Positive Progression System allows you to increase your winnings and reduce your losses. This system is only applicable if you have a standard betting device.
15. The "standard" unit of betting must be equal to an amount of your gambling bankroll for the specific session. If your session's bankroll totals $100, your"standard" unit might be $10.00. This would allow you to play at least 10 betting games without running out of money even if you lose all 10.
16. These systems can allow you to gain a lot of money during hot streaks , while minimizing your losses during cold ones.
17. One common strategy is to add one-half of the amounts you win to your next bet. For example, at blackjack if you win a hand using the "standard" betting unit of $10.00 you'd be adding $5.00 to the bet on the following hand to make an overall bet of $15.00. For a $22.50 bet then you'd be adding $7.50 to your $15.00 winning hand. If you lose your hand, simply go back to the $10.00 standard betting unit and begin again. In reality, the increases of 50% will be approximate.
18. Another more complicated system is to keep your bankroll divided into certain units. Then, you bet one unit on each event. As you win, your account grows, and each unit will grow and you'll be placing larger amounts. If you lose money, your units and bets, become smaller.
19. You can set up the system to draw a portion of the winnings you earn from your casino bank account regularly and then put it in your "do NOT touch" bankroll. You might, for example, take half of your winnings to the "do NOT touch" account if you have two bank accounts. If you are on a lengthy winning streak using a Positive Progression System the wins can increase dramatically.

Money Management Money Management Systems to manage Negative Progression

20. A Negative Progression System (NPS) is a method that allows you to increase the amount you bet when you lose and decrease the amount of bets when you win. To use this system correctly, you will need to create your "standard" betting unit.
21. The most common negative progression system is the Martingale System. This method will double your stake if you lose and then returns you to the standard betting unit when you win. If you lose a blackjack game, you'd place a bet of $10.00 to bet $10.00 for the following one. If you do win, you'd then lower your bet down to the "standard" $10.00 bet for the following hand. The Martingale method is unsustainable in all forms of gambling.
22. This can be a frustrating system because you can only get the "standard" system during hot streaks. In cold streaks, you're losing larger and greater sums.

23. Make sure you draw a little cash from your bankroll winnings and put it in an "do not ever touch" bankroll.

Playing Roulette

24. American roulette is among the most difficult casino games you can play since the house edge under normal rules is 5.26 percent or more.
25. European roulette comes with an 2.7 percentage house edge because there are less numbers with one "0" than American roulette.
26. American Roulette bets give the house a 5.26% advantage. The only exception is the "0","00" 1, 2 3, and combination bet which gives the house a higher 7.89 percent advantage.
27. Roulette betting systems are based on the incorrect assumption that past spins can predict the future. Unless the system is defective or is fixed, each spin is based on the same odds as every other spin.
28. Martingale is a negative progression system that is highly well-known in roulette betting (see #17). The Martingale system used in roulette, like any other game, will always fail.
29. Because of the high house advantage, if you're playing not for fun but to win money you may want to take a chances with betting on higher payout bets and hope that you get lucky.
30. You could try a modified positive progression method at roulette. Divide the amount you can afford to lose in a single session of roulette into 35 "standard" betting units. Choose a number and place one unit on it (must be at minimum equal to the table minimum bet). Continue betting one unit on that same number until you win or run out of your bankroll of 35 units. If you do win, put two units on the same number . You can continue to bet two units on the number until you get a win or you lose your bankroll. If you are a winner again, walk away!
31. Roulette is a comparatively slow moving game compared to other online games and, therefore, it could take you longer to lose your money.
32. It is not advisable to play roulette to make money. The odds of winning are too to your advantage. It is best to play roulette for fun and to keep yourself entertained without risking much of your hard-earned money.

34. There may be as many as 12 to 14 players playing at the table, and they play the role as dealer passed across the table, similar to how dice are scattered around a table of craps.
35. Each hand can be placed bet by all players. Bets can be placed on either the "player" or the "dealer" or even a tie. Except for the tie bet, Baccarat is much like betting heads or tails on the flip of a coin.

37. Both the dealer and player win even money if they place winning bets. A commission of 5% is paid at the time that the bet is placed or when the player is gone.
38. Tie bets usually pay 8-1, again with a 5% discount.
39. A game of 8 decks offers a slightly lower house advantage for "banker bets" as compared to "tie betting" and it therefore makes sense to only bet on the banker.
40. As in all online gambling the concept of counting cards is useless because the deck(s) are usually played out after each hand in Baccarat.

In blackjack, however there are many players at a table it may be beneficial for the player to have a single hand.
