With 18 spins left and a $500 deficit to reach the $1500 target, maximizing win-probability favors a bold, minimal-stake straight-up bet sized so a single hit (35:1) jumps the bankroll past the target, preserving capital for subsequent attempts while keeping the long-run hit probability as high as possible given the house edge is constant across bet types.

With bankroll 985 and need to reach 1500, using bold-play logic: a straight-up bet at 35:1 odds needs only ceil((1500-985)/35)=15 chips to hit the target in a single win, minimizing risk while preserving capital for future spins if it misses.

Covering 9 numbers at 22 each (198 total) guarantees a net gain of 594 if any hits, pushing bankroll to 1564 which clears the 1500 target in one spin, while keeping total stake within the 200 cap.
