I was trying to do a roulett technique, without the right amount of money, and I just lost 120$.I knew I did not have enough money to do the strat. But did it any way.

I get what you're saying but you just can't tell. It's unlikely there would be 12 reds in a row to begin with, why not 13, or 11. There's just no way of knowing.

If betting strategies worked there'd be a lot of rich gamblers. Although I will say Doyle Brunson's Super System book worked pretty well for me in home games, but it's a comprehensive strategy guide. It's dated now though, I'm not sure how relevant it is to modern poker and it worked for me against pretty poor players to begin with who weren't utilizing any strategy at all.

I mention live poker because I don't know about those machine games, the win rates are programmed in afaik, and all games favor the house anyways. Poker isn't against the house, the house always wins a little with the rake.
