They say what happens in Vegas usually stays in Vegas, apart from when we choose to share it here…. Yup you asked for a readers page where you could share event tips & tricks and I’ve only gone and called your bluff and created one. So here’s where you can lay all your event progress on the table for your fellow addicts to see.
And it’s also where you can share any strategies,or advice, hey you can even share your problems. So c’mon Addicts lets see if we can hit the event jackpot together. And thanks in advance for helping me to keep this Site going!!! I wouldn’t bet against us pulling it off.

I posted below my strategy and wanted to repost here to try and help folks who seem to have alot of grief and agony over the win rate for the roulette. As of today, I got Peter costume and 5th building which rewards 2 tokens. Although nowhere near from unlocking David Copperfield, I feel less stressed.
Don’t be tempted by trying for green as i have had more luck betting red and black alternately. I did bet on green twice and ended up kicking myself as I did not win.

You should’ve bet on Green 5 times and it would’ve paid out. That’s what I did and it came up on the 5th go. This isn’t a truly fair roulette – there are algorithms determining whether you will win or lose and just giving us a false sense of choice.

Well, I must say that my luck with Roulette has also been, as near as I can tell, completely by chance, and pretty close to 50/50, as it should be. (Green has never come up yet, but red/black seem about even.) And I am betting the same colour every time, just to ensure that it should be “fair” each time. If you calculate the odds on Green, they are less than 1/5th chance at 5 times payout, so in all, I think red or black are slightly better odds in the long run… and it seems we may be in for a rather long run! 🙂 If you are complaining that this particular event relies on “nothing but luck”, then I think you should stop complaining! That’s how Vegas was built!!! 😀

0/10 in the last 48 hours on the wheel – extremely frustrating…I messaged TinyCo again, we’ll see although I have no idea what they can do beyond increasing the roulette wheel odds…the Peter costume requires roulette wins to earn when playing freemium, so may be two-three more days to get him…this one is going nowhere fast and the clam bank is shut for duration as spending for anything in this event just feels like I’m rewarding TinyCo for bad behavior…ugh…

Playing for strategy, you literally have to do only Green.
Green gives 5x the rewards that both Red and Black do. In order to really make any progress with both Impersonator Peter and David Copperfield, I found that you can only bet on Green because even if you lose multiple times, the payout is worth more than you’d ever get from betting on either Red or Black (as they only payout at a multiplier of 1x).
You can lose 4 times on Red or Black, but get Green once and it instantly makes up for everything. And including what other people’s results are, even at 10 losses, two green’s still make up for the RNG% chance you have with betting on Red or Black.
It may sound weird since it basically means you’re always betting only on the hardest one to land, but unlike actual casinos, the RNG chance isn’t rigged since it’s built in a way to sustain the standard RNG factor that occurs in most games (I.E., Overwatch lootboxes). Having bet on Green only, I’ve found that I actually have a better time with Green than I have with either Red or Black, since the rewards more than make up for what you need.
Tl;dr: Bet on Green. No matter how small it is, the payout of Green Vs. the payout of Red and Black far outweighs the perceived chance to win.

Well, I started betting on green every time after the first couple of days and it hits for me every 2 to three times. I’ve completely blown through the shop and have been stockpiling for quite a while. Maybe i’ve been lucky, but even so, the payout for cigs (once you have Peter’s costume) is 30 Cards, plus the 20 you get for the win, plus the extra items for Copperfield. It’s counterintuitive, and again maybe luck, but I recommend always betting on green.

Disclaimer! 🙂 The following are based on the visual of the Roulette Wheel, only.
Odds of landing on Green, 1 in 15, or 6.7%.
Odds of landing on either Red or Black, 7/15, or 46.7%.
Of course, you will win 5 times the stuff on Green, so that increases the “payout” to 5 x 6.7% or effectively 33.3%. I think Red or Black are better bets, IF we assume the odds are based on the actual segments in the wheel, and the spins are truly random. (Of course, if TC’s algorithms are written differently, only a lot of testing would reveal the actual odds.) 🙂
LikeLike
I had my doubts, but I just bet 5 times and it paid out green on the 5th go. So I’m already better off than guessing red or black, as I’d need to have 100% success rate to be equal to the green payout.

echoing many others here but the roulette wheel is really going to hamper progress in this oddly-longer-than-it-should-be event.
I’ve got a 2/15 success rate so far – if i bet red it’s black, bet black, comes in red. never in any of those 15 has it landed on green.
So current tactic is stockpile a load of chips and then just do 4 or 5 attempts back to back – bet green 4 times, if it only comes in one time then it’ll be worth it.

Just sharing what I found in my game. Started with reds consistently then once I went through about 8 times, I switched to black. Only once did I land on green but did not bet on it. I’d go with 2 or 3 reds until I hit red then switch to black for next 2 to 3 times. So far, success rate of about 50% I guess. Just received Peter Impersonator and working on 4th deco item. Slightly easier to get more silver cards with Peter due to his payout. But again, the grind lies with the Roulette.

As it’s random I can’t see getting very far at any predictable rate. Looks like this event is truly luck based. Have been betting red (green once), but it’s just been red or black. Very tough game given the 1 try per (minimum) of 4 hours.

My strategy from the beginning has been to play black every time. I haven’t kept track exactly but i think i am close to, or approaching the expected 47% win rate, which is really the best that can be expected. I’m close to unlocking the wagering whale, which will definitely help with getting tokens/spins.

Done the roulette wheel about 10 times so far. 3 times out of 10 it’s hit green (despite it having a 1-in-15 chance if every space is equally likely). So I’ve started betting green every time. Second time I tried, green hit and I won 20 silver cards, versus the 1 silver card I get for betting wrong or 4 for guessing right for red or black. So I’m just going to pick green every time, and if the breakdown is anywhere close to what I’ve seen in the first few days, I expect to do a lot better than picking red or black, at least over time. Will follow up in a few days to let everyone else know how this worked out for me.

I will keep checking if there really is a pattern.

I’m 0-2 on green and 3-10 on black. A green win is worth 5X either a red or black win, so curious as to your long-term results – yes, keep us posted, please. At this point, with the poor win rates, the snail’s pace of play and the fact that realistically one can only collect 4 times a day from Lois (pesky sleep, job and family commitments), playing green probably’s as good as anything…
I do have the Peter costume down to a buy-out of 168 clams, but that’s way too much IMHO in this event…not spending clams at all here…but again, the win rate is so low that to completely unlock the Peter costume freemium will still take 2 – 3 days…
Still stuck on earning the third building, 11/14 silver cards so far, I should get that tomorrow…the fourth is 28 (TWENTY-EIGHT, TINYCO?!? REALLY????) so that’s going to be a really long time coming…

I thought about betting green everytime after green came out my 2nd spin, but it hasn’t hit again so I’m glad I didn’t.

Just need the last 2 buildings and except for the straight jackets, which I’m 4/19, I’m about half way to Copperfield. Good luck with the green, I’m curious to know how it works out for you

Not sure TinyCo is doing itself any favors on this one as it appears to be a slog-fest in the early going…with Lois the only freemium option for dropping coins and with the poor win rates at the roulette wheel, this event it really slow-going with no real incentive for throwing away perfectly good clams, IMHO…
I did purchase the $4.99 character bundle with event currency to see if the 8 coins would help me out…plus, I’m all about characters, so that was just the clincher…the four coin drops (so far) from Lois and the purchased coins yielded 2/8 wins (25%) from the roulette wheel which, judging from the comments I’ve seen, is on the high side of the win rate…yikes…
The premium options are to purchase the Circus Joe costume and the FGF Fountain at 210 and 220 clams respectfully…while my first inclination was to purchase the Joe costume, I’ve held off as others have reported he doesn’t really help due to the poor win rate…the FGF Fountain just falls into the category of being yet another overpriced deco that will be useless in less than 18 days, so definitely passing on that one…again, JMHO…
I am not a full premium player, hardly, but I will spend clams and play mid-premium when I feel there is value for my entertainment dollars…in this case, at least so far, as long as TinyCo is not showing us love, I don’t feel the need to reciprocate…

Just to mention, Android update is out and works for me now. My pure and simple strategy is to just unlock David C. as he is not timed so we can start collecting his items. But this will take place same time as Impersonator Peter. And likely you won’t get the bonus clams.
Another way is to get to the point where you almost or halfway to unlocking Impersonator Peter before you repair and trigger David C., so you can have a better chance to collect bonus clams. If not, above strategy works well. Realized it may take a long while to get Peter due to Lois being the only person to clear tourists and get tokens for the Roulette, which is also not an always win.
