AI Summary

This video presents and tests the 'Padovan Streets' roulette system, a negative progression based on the Padovan sequence. The host demonstrates the system through live trials and a simulator, analyzing success rates for different win targets and wheel types.

[00:17]
System Introduction

Padovan Streets is a negative progression system where bets increase after losses and reset after a win, using the Padovan sequence (1,1,1,2,2,3,4,5,7,9,12,16,21...).

[00:55]
Padovan vs Fibonacci

Padovan adds the numbers at positions n-2 and n-3, unlike Fibonacci which adds n-1 and n-2.

[01:09]
Betting Parameters

With a $10 unit bet, the sequence becomes $10, $10, $10, $20, $20, $30, $40, $50, $70, $90... The system bets on a single double street (6 numbers), paying 5:1.

[01:25]
Bankroll & Walk Condition

Recommended buy-in is $1,800; walk when up $450 (25%). Starting bet is $10; maximum bet can reach $370.

[01:39]
Live Trial 1 Start

Starting with $7.8 million (simulated), playing on double-zero wheel. First few spins result in losses, progressing through the sequence.

[03:22]
Scaling the System

The system scales linearly: multiply starting unit by desired bet size.

[04:04]
Expected Loss per Spin

Expected loss per spin is $0.27 on single-zero, $0.53 on double-zero for first tier.

[04:46]
Recovery Advantage

After 10 consecutive losses, a win on the 11th spin puts you ahead by $250 more than starting point.

[05:12]
First Win in Trial 1

Hit on 21, win $800, net up $330, reset to $10.

[07:42]
Trial 1 Success

Reached up $470, exceeding the $450 walk target. Trial 1 successful.

[08:09]
Trial 2 Start

Reset to $10, begins losing streak again.

[09:13]
Win in Trial 2

Hit on 20, win $150, up $80.

[12:22]
Final Win Trial 2

After deep progression, win $1050, net up $500. Both trials hit goal.

[12:36]
Simulator Results

For 25% bankroll increase: success rates 70% (single-zero), 69% (double-zero), 67.4% (triple-zero). For 50%: ~55%, 53.6%, 52.3%. For 100%: ~40.5%, 37.6%, 35.8%.

[13:44]
Number Map Observations

40 spins: number 12 hit 4 times, red and first dozen were popular.

[14:00]
System Rating

Overall 3.5/5 stars. Betting simplicity 5/5, progression simplicity 3/5, chip uniformity 4/5, jackpot potential 3/5, scalability 3/5, comp value 0.5/5.

The Padovan Streets system can be effective for small, consistent gains but has limited upside and requires discipline to avoid large losses. Simulator data shows reasonable success rates for conservative win targets.

Tutorial Checklist

1 00:17 Understand the Padovan sequence: 1,1,1,2,2,3,4,5,7,9,12,16,21... Each number is sum of numbers two and three steps back.
2 01:09 Set your unit bet (e.g., $10). Multiply the sequence by your unit to get bet amounts.
3 01:09 Choose a double street (6 numbers) to bet on. Place one bet per spin.
4 01:25 Determine buy-in: recommended $1,800 for $10 unit. Start with first bet ($10).
5 00:29 On a loss, move to the next bet in the sequence. On a win, reset to the first bet ($10).
6 01:25 Set a win goal: walk when up 25% of buy-in (e.g., $450).
7 01:39 Play until win goal is reached or bankroll is exhausted. Maximum consecutive losses before wipeout: 14 (with $1,800 bankroll).

[00:02] sequence in town. Can the Padovan sequence be used to win at roulette? Let's check out Padovan streets together today on Jack Ace.

[00:17] jackace.com and today I have another math approved roulette system. This system is called Padovan streets and if you like Fibonacci dozens, you'll love this one. Padovan streets is a negative progression system where you increase

[00:29] your bets when you lose and reset to the first bet when you win. The Padovan first bet when you win. The Padovan sequence is 1 1 1 2 2 3 4 5 7 9 12 16

[00:42] 21. Each new number is the sum of the second and third numbers preceding it. second and third numbers preceding it. So 1 + 1 is 2 1 + 1 is 2 again So 1 + 1 is 2 1 + 1 is 2 again 1 + 2 is 3 2 + 2 is 4 2 + 3 is 5 and so

[00:55] on. With the Fibonacci sequence, you add the two preceding numbers together to get the next one. That's n - 1 and n - 2. With Padovan, you add the numbers of n - 2 and n - 3. And for this trial,

[01:09] we'll be using a $10 unit bet. So our sequence is going to be 10 10 10 20 20 30 40 50 70 90 and so on. And we're going to be betting on a single double street. When you win, you win five times your bet. The buy-in for Padovan streets

[01:25] is $1,800 and Cody suggests walking when you're up 450 or more. That's 25%. The starting bet is just $10 but it can balloon to as much as 370 if you start with a $1,500 bankroll. So let's go. We're starting with a 7.8 million dollar

[01:39] balance and we're playing on a double zero wheel. Nine, so that's a whack minus 10. We're going to stay at the $10 bet. which is six numbers, you win five times your bet. So when you bet $10 on tier

[01:54] your bet. So when you bet $10 on tier one, you win $50. When you bet $20 on steps four and five, you win a 100. 12, that's another whack. Lose 10 again. $10. With a starting balance of $1,800, that

[02:09] means we can withstand up to 14 losses in a row. If we have 15 losses in a row, we'll be wiped out. Really, you only need to start with 1490 to be able to withstand the same number of losses. If you're on a smaller budget, you can just

[02:22] start with $1,500 or so without affecting your success rate that much. 36, that's another loss minus 10. We're not going to hit this double losses. Like we said before, this is a negative

[02:36] progression system. That means you increase your bets when you lose and you negative progression systems, you have a amount but there's always that chance that you're going to lose big. 11,

[02:50] another loss. That time we lost 20. And we're going to bet 20 again. This is level five. When do you walk? Cody suggests walking after you're up 450. That's 25% of his

[03:04] suggested buy-in of 1800. 33, another whack. Now we go to 30. This 33, another whack. Now we go to 30. This is level six.

[03:22] And now we bet 40. So this system is easy to scale. Just by whatever you want to be your starting unit. If you want to start with a $100 bet, just start with $100 on the double street of your choice.

[03:37] 14, another whack minus 40. We are currently down 140. And we're going to increase our bet to 50. This is level eight. If you enjoy discussing gambling systems, join my Discord. We have a

[03:50] pretty active community of around 700 degens like you. We love talking about gambling, so join today. 23 lot. We're going to increase our bet to 70, level nine. For the first tier, you

[04:04] have an expected loss of 27 cents per spin on a single zero wheel and 53 cents spin on a single zero wheel and 53 cents per spin on a double zero wheel. We're down 260. Not starting out great.

[04:20] Now we're going to bet 90. No more bets.

[04:32] Minus 90, we're down 350 and we're going to increase to 120. that when you hit, you usually springboard to a much higher level than streak. If you look at this chart, you can see

[04:46] if you lose 10 times in a row, when you hit on the 11th spin, you'll be ahead hit on the 11th spin, you'll be ahead 250 more from when you started.

[04:58] We are down 470. And we're going to be betting 160. So question of the day, the Super Bowl is coming up. Who do you guys like to the Chiefs for the past two years. Do you think they'll win again? My daughter

[05:12] wants them to win again because she's a huge Taylor Swift fan. Okay, finally we hit. 21, that's a bingo. We win 800.

[05:24] 21, that's a bingo. We win 800. We're actually up 330 right now. And we're going to reset to the $10 bet, level one. No more bets.

[05:38] to step two, which is still $10. Also, check out my Jack Ace merch store, shop.jackace.com. There we have a ton of gambling merch, both roulette and craps and blackjack, video game merch, crypto merch, Rubik's

[05:52] Cube merch and of course Jack Ace branded merch as well. And we're going to reset to step one, which is still $10. Betting on six

[06:06] numbers, you cover 16.2% of the wheel on single zero and 15.8% of the wheel on double zero. 13, that's a whack minus 10. 13, that's a whack minus 10. Go to tier two, which is still $10.

[06:31] Go to level three, still $10. Cons, for cons, I think betting on six numbers is too small of a target. I think I'm going to do my next video with this system betting on eight numbers instead. 34, another whack minus 10.

[06:44] If we expand this spreadsheet to cover the eight number bet, you can see we the eight number bet, you can see we still end up ahead when we recover. Stay at $20 but we're going to go to tier five. As far as alternate bets go,

[07:00] there's really no improvement on Padovan streets. If you're going to bet on six streets. If you're going to bet on six numbers, this would be the way to go. Now we increase to $30. Of course, you can bet on whatever double street you

[07:15] want. It doesn't have to be 16 to 21. And if you want to get cute, you can split the bet in half and bet on two streets instead. streets instead. Zero, whack minus 30.

[07:27] And we're going to increase our bet to 40. 40. No more bets.

[07:42] 200. And we are actually up 470 right now. That is more than our win requirement. We said we were going to walk if you were up 450 or more. We are up 470. So we were successful with trial number

[07:55] one but let's check trial number two. We're going to reset to $10 and start over. No more bets.

[08:09] Minus 10. This friend or for this trial, we are This friend or for this trial, we are now down $10.

[08:24] Minus another 10. Go to tier three, which is still $10. Minus 10 and we're going to increase to $20, step four.

[08:44] Step five is still $20. And I'm giving away a blackjack basic you want to win one, just contact anti-hero in the comments below and make winner soon and send you a card in the mail.

[08:59] Three, whack. We're going to go to step six, which is 30. No more bets.

[09:13] 20, that's a hit. We win 150. And now for this trial, we are up $80. And now for this trial, we are up $80. No more bets. Six, whack minus 10. Go to step two.

[10:12] 12 another whack. We're going to go to $30, step six. $30, step six. No more bets.

[10:39] 35 whack. Increase our bet to 50 now.

[11:24] 14 whack. Minus 70, and now we're betting 90.

[11:39] 120. We're getting to the big bets now. I know it's scary to bet six numbers with a big bet, but you got to do it for the system.

[12:07] We're currently down 550, and we're going to bet 210.

[12:22] We win 1050. We're currently up $500. So that's how Padovan streets did in the live trials. We hit our goal of being up 450 both times, and we ended up 970, almost $1,000. But let's check out Padovan

[12:36] $1,000. But let's check out Padovan streets in the Jack Ace simulator. jackace.com, and we are testing Padovan simulator. We're going to try to increase our bankroll by 450, by 900,

[12:50] increase our bankroll by 450, by 900, and doubling it to 3600, a gain of 1800. Trying to increase our bankroll by 25%, we were successful 70%, 69%, and 67.4% of the time on single, double, and triple zero roulette wheels. Trying to

[13:06] increase our bankroll 50%, by $900, we were successful 55, 53.6, and 52.3% of the time on single, double, and triple zero. And trying to double our bankroll

[13:18] zero. And trying to double our bankroll to 3600, we were successful 40.5, 37.6, and 35.8% of the time. So yeah, pretty big drop off going from 25% to 50 to

[13:30] 100%. And surprisingly, not much drop off going from single to double to That was actually kind of shocking, especially with the number of spins per trial we were making. So really quick, let's take a look at the number map.

[13:44] Looks like 12 and double zero hit quite a bit. We had a total of 40 spins, and 12 hit four times. Also, red was pretty popular, first dozen pretty popular. there. And we can look at the radar map, and we can see a bunch of the outliers.

[14:00] Two numbers got hit three times, and and that 12 hit four times. simulator. What do you think of it so far? Here are my thoughts on it. For betting simplicity, I give it five out of five stars. I love systems where you

[14:15] can just make a single bet on a spin. You don't have to make a million bets all over the table. Progression simplicity, three out of five stars. progression, but you can write it down if you need to. Once you've done it a

[14:28] few times, it's easy to remember. For chip uniformity, I give it four out of You're mostly betting the same chip, but when you get into level 10 or higher, there will be large stacks on the table. For jackpot potential, I give it three

[14:41] this system is that you don't really have a chance to win big. This is a risk a lot to win a fraction of your bankroll type system. Scalability, I give it three out of five stars. You can only scale this upwards really, but it's

[14:55] really just meant to be played for low limits. You can only scale this upwards, but it's really meant to just be played for low limits. Comp value, 0.5 stars out of five. With a $10 bet, don't expect free meals or lodging anytime

[15:09] soon. So overall, I give it three and a half out of five stars. This is a pretty good attempt at using Padovan in a roulette system. So thanks for watching. like and subscribe. Always gamble responsibly. Never play triple zero

[15:24] roulette, and peace out donkeys. Even when you feel low, you can still go. Even when you feel slow, you can still go. Even when there's no hope, you can still go. I never ran said no, man, I still go. Go. Go. Go. Go. Go. Go.
