Reverse labouchere analysed in roulette Xtreme roulette simulator

Game/Storyline

• This video isn’t a narrative game—it focuses on roulette betting systems tested using the “Xtreme roulette simulator.”
• The system discussed uses a reverse Labouchere / reverse level-stake progression, attributed to Norman Lee, who claimed it could be exploited when playing on biased roulette wheels.

Gameplay / How the System Is Played (Reverse Labouchere / Reverse Level Share)

• The player chooses a color bet (example shown: Red).
• The simulator prompts for:
  • Maximum bet size (example used: a very high value to avoid house limits).
• A progression list is used (default shown as 1, 2, 3, 4).
• Betting rule demonstrated:
  • Take the first + last numbers of the current progression to form the next bet amount.
• After each result:
  • Win: the progression is updated by including values shown in the process (the video demonstrates removing/adding so the progression changes).
  • Loss: the progression is altered so the bet sequence effectively moves “opposite” the normal progression.
• The video repeats spins while the progression values change.
• When the progression list becomes empty, it resets to 1, 2, 3, 4.
• Note shown in the demo:
  • Roulette can include 0; the video indicates crossing out/ignoring 0 in the progression logic during the example.

Gameplay Highlights / Results from the Simulator

• Short demo outcome:
  • The session shows mixed wins and losses as the progression changes, including bet amounts derived from sums like 1 + 4 = 5, then subsequent sums as the progression updates.
• Long-run test:
  • Over a target bankroll (sped up to 10,000), the system:
    • Produces many small wins and occasional spikes.
    • But overall trends toward slow losses, described as:
      • “guarantees a slow steady loss”
      • Only “small chance of winning a lot.”
• Mentioned pattern vs. another system:
  • The reverse system creates the opposite spike behavior compared to the “reversal above system”:
    • One system shows upward movement with occasional spikes down
    • The reverse version shows downward movement with occasional spikes up

Key Strategies / Tips Discussed

• Main takeaway:
  • On fair roulette, the reverse progression is bad and tends to bleed slowly.
• Why Norman Lee allegedly used it:
  • If the wheel/table is biased (not random), betting a certain color (e.g., Red) could produce:
    • repeated streaks (the “spikes”)
    • Moments where you could capitalize by cashing out during favorable runs
  • The system is presented as a way to endure fluctuations until a biased “spike” occurs.
