Dixon Southern Illinois University The near-miss effect has been repeated documented in the published literature as a variable that impacts gambling behavior. The effect, however, has been almost exclusively studied using slot machines. The present investigation sought to explore the effect of almost winning while playing roulette. When 28 participants were given the opportunity to play roulette and rate the closeness to wins after every trial, ratings varied as a function of numerical value between number bet and number won for most players. These results extend the findings that almost winning (e.g., a near-miss effect) is present for the game of roulette and defines the parameters of such an effect. Implications for the treatment of pathological gamblers are presented.

  • Searching for Viable Betting Strategies in Gambling, with Consideration to Roulette
    Searching for viable betting strategies in gambling, with consideration to Roulette Joseph Toninato UMD University Honors Capstone Project Introduction Gambling is one of the world’s oldest past times. Dice have been found in Egyptian tombs that are dated to be roughly 8000 years old. Since then, gambling has taken many different forms. Cards, dice, slots, wagers on sporting events, all of these fall under the umbrella of gambling. Whatever form it takes, all methods of gambling share the same structure. There is a game of chance, where people place wagers of money or assets or any multitude of things in the hopes of winning some amount of goods that are greater than their wager. Approximately 1.6 billion people worldwide reported gambling in some fashion in 2010. While many of these stated that they played the lottery, a large portion ventured into casinos. One of the most popular and iconic games in a casino is Roulette. This game is thought to originate from a perpetual motion machine invented in the 17th century, and played in its current form since before 1800. Roulette is a simple game in which a wheel is spun with numbered, colored, slots ranging from 0-36, and a double 0, or 00, in the American version. A ball is then allowed to spin around the outside of the wheel and fall into a random slot. This is the winning number. In addition, the numbers are colored either red or black, and the zero or zeros are colored green. A player may make one, or multiple, of many bets.
