2026 Roulette Table Limit & Progression Survival Calculator
Enter your system, unit, bankroll and table limits to see how many consecutive losses you can survive - and whether the table maximum or your bankroll breaks first.
This is a precision staking calculator, not a predictor. It builds the exact bet sequence your chosen progression would require during a losing streak and finds the point where the next bet exceeds your table maximum or your remaining bankroll. It will not tell you what the wheel will do - spins are random - but it shows, in hard numbers, why progression systems break.
This calculator computes progression survival only. It does not predict outcomes and cannot improve your odds.
How to read the results
- Survive before bankroll fails: the number of consecutive losses you can fully fund before you cannot afford the next bet.
- Survive before table limit: the number of losses before the next required bet is larger than the table maximum (not applicable to flat/positive systems).
- Next required bet: what you would have to wager on the spin after your last survivable loss.
- Total risked: everything you have already put at stake during that streak.
- Which fails first: for progressions, whether you run out of money or run out of legal bet size first.
Why no system changes the base expected value
A progression rearranges when you bet large and small, but each individual spin still carries the wheel's house edge. Surviving more losses just means more spins - and more spins means the edge has more chances to apply. The calculator makes the trade-off concrete: a smaller unit buys more survival, never a better outcome.
Reality check: on a single-zero wheel an even-money bet loses about 48.6% of the time, so a run of six or seven losses is common over an evening. Most Martingale players hit the table maximum inside that range.

Frequently Asked Questions
It computes how many consecutive losses a system absorbs before the next bet exceeds the table maximum or your bankroll, and which fails first.
No. It only computes the staking sequence. Spins are independent and random.
Doubling is exponential. A $5 unit reaches $640 after seven losses, so most tables cap the chain within six or seven losing spins.
Use a smaller starting unit relative to your bankroll and table limit. It delays failure but does not change your odds.
No. It only means you can keep betting. The expected value stays negative.
