Over the long term, your 20 numbers will come up about 5% more than their 18 numbers. You figure in hot streaks when you are in the green, and you could walk away with quite a bit.
Bingo... doubling simply puts your losing spins in your favor by allowing you to profit when a win comes up as if you had profited from them. The table max keeps you from doubling too many times and limits your loss during really bad losing streaks.
