I usually make an all in bet with a sticky bonus but not on a single number on roulette. (I consider this a sensible and reasonable play and casinos seem to think so to as I have always been paid without question.)

I agree this is advantage play but not of the gross kind of the roulette bet.

The huge variance on such a bet would mean there could be no guaranteed profit ( you have to factor in the odds of a casino refusing to pay on those few occasions when the bet hit) in anything like a reasonable time scale unless I was part of a group or I didn't really intend honouring my part of the bet.

It does not surprise me that some casinos consider such gross and obvious advantage play as crossing the line into bonus abuse.

Dubi claimed in his first post that he played Roulette initially for his own fun. ( one bet all in then switched to blackjack, yeah right!)

Anybody believe that statement for starters?
