Playing both red and black, you have a 36/38 chance of hitting either
red or black for a net push, and a 2/38 chance of losing by hitting green.
So on average, for every $38 dollars wagered you get $36 back, for a
return of 94.74% and a house edge of 5.26%.
There is no system of betting in roulette that can reduce this house edge.

No, no, you guys are not understanding this properly. I can play BOTH red &
black on the SAME spin and get points on all my "coin in". Even with double
zero, playing both sides of black/red can't be an edge of 5.26%
