## Summary

This video demonstrates a roulette strategy combining the Kavouras bet with a five double street recovery system. The presenter shows how to recover losses from the Kavouras bet (54% win chance) by using a high-coverage recovery bet that wins back the lost stake in one spin, albeit with increased risk.

### Key Points

- **Loss Recovery System Introduction** [00:01] — The video demonstrates a recovery method that allows you to lose multiple rounds but still walk away with a $40 profit. The Kavouras bet has a 54% chance of winning.
- **Kavouras Bet Setup** [01:51] — Use eight $5 units for a $40 total bet. Place one unit on the corner (0,1,2), two units on a double street covering the last six numbers, and one unit each on five splits: 13-14, 15-18, 27-30, 17-20, 8-11.
- **Five Double Street Recovery** [02:50] — After a loss, place all eight units ($40) on five non-overlapping double streets. This gives 81% coverage, recovering the loss in one spin if it hits. However, if the ball lands in the uncovered 19%, you lose $200 instead of $40.
- **Recovery Payout Calculation** [03:44] — A win on a double street pays 5:1. With $40 on each of five streets ($200 total), a win returns $240, netting $40 profit, exactly recovering the lost stake.
- **Session Results** [06:58] — Starting with $2,009, using $5 units and $40 Kavouras bets, the player lost three out of four rounds but recovered each loss with the five double street system, ending with a $40 profit.
- **Risk and Reward Balance** [07:55] — To recover a $40 loss, you must stake $200. The recovery bet has an 80% win chance, but losing it means losing $240 total. This illustrates the trade-off between coverage and risk.

### Conclusion

The Kavouras bet combined with the five double street recovery system can turn losing sessions into small profits, but it requires a larger bankroll and carries the risk of significant losses if the recovery bet fails.

If you're not familiar with the Cavuto strategy yet, we go over it in depth in another video linked above. Off to a rough start, I see. Now we initiate the recovery sequence. I feel like I should be wearing a cape when I
say that. To do the five double street recovery, place all eight units, so $40 for us, on five non-overlapping double streets. It doesn't matter which ones. In doing so, [music] you have 81% coverage, so you're most likely to
recover in one spin. However, as with all high coverage roulette strategies, if you hit the 19% [music] of the wheel that's uncovered, you suffer big-time and lose $200 instead of just your original $40.

we've got our recovery weapon. Well, no problem as long as it doesn't hit one of &gt;&gt; [laughter] &gt;&gt; It's vital to remember that it could always happen. As long as you're playing at a regulated fair casino, like the
ones in our pre-vetted list, your risk is limited to the game itself. But, as I said earlier, there are casinos out there that make merely When you're screaming [music] into the void because they stole your money,

Let's try the Cavouras again and see if we can get a bit further. This system is a flat bet, meaning we never change it or adjust our bet size unless we're doing the recovery. Again, our community has a unlimited

We have $2,059 again. Let's tap out now.
We started with $2,009. We used $5 units and made $40 bets using the Kavouras method. We lost three times out of four, but each time we recovered our loss through one spin using the five double street
recovery system. By the end of the entire session after multiple rounds of bouncing back and forth, we made a profit of $40. If we had continued, then who knows, we might have won more. What we witnessed
our odds. The Kavouras bet has a 54% chance of winning. With five rounds and four losses, we actually only won 20% of the time, but then with the five double street recovery, we had a 100% win rate
over four recovery attempts. Standard coverage for five double streets is 80%, so we were ahead. Keep in mind, however, we only played for five-ish minutes. Now, consider this. To win back our $40
loss, we had to stake $200. That's how recovery works. You cover most of the board, but your returns will be small. So, if you want to recoup a large amount, you have to stake more. Because of this, you can't help but ask,
"What happens when you lose the recovery?" Well, I won't sugarcoat it. It sucks. That's what. That means you lost $200 and your original $40. Although it's not statistically likely, that can still
happen 20% of the time when using the five double street. If you wanted to stake less, you could do it, but you'd have to accept higher risk, too. If you put $40 on red, we'd only lose
$40, but we'd only have a 48% chance of winning. It's this balance of [music] risk and reward that winning at roulette comes down to. We cover all of your options with clear charts and strategies on our channel, but you have to join our
