The BBC (Big-Black-Column) strategy is a progressive betting system that moves your bets across three zones of the roulette table – Big numbers (19–36), then Black, then Columns – carrying over the profits from one win to fuel the next stage. The idea is to “stack small wins into a larger one” by chaining bets together.
How It Works:
- Bet on Big (19–36)
• Bet a fixed amount (e.g., $5) on Big.
• Repeat until you win. - Bet on Black using Stage 1 winnings
• Add the winnings (e.g., $5) to a bet on Black ($5 original + $5 = $10).
• Repeat until you win. - Bet on Two Columns using Stage 2 winnings
• Take the winnings (e.g., $10) and split them across 2 of 3 columns.
• If the number lands in one of your columns, you win 2:1.
• After the column win, restart from Big.
When you win, you’ve recovered all losses and made a net profit of $5.
✅ Pros:
- Uses profits from each step, not new bankroll.
- Engaging and varied progression across table areas.
- Lower risk per stage compared to full martingale.
⚠️ Cons:
- Losing any stage resets progress.
- Black and Column steps rely on more volatile outcomes.
- Requires discipline to not overbet or chase losses.
📝Example:
- Big Bet → $5 → Win
• Profit: +$5 - Black Bet → $10 (original $5 + $5 profit) → Win
• Profit: +$10 - Two Column Bet → $20 split across 2 columns ($10 each) → Win (pays 2:1)
• Payout: $30 → Net profit: $10
• Restart
