Still others say it originated in an old Chinese game whose object was to arrange 37 statuettes of animals in a "magic square" of 666 (but they fail to describe the method of play) A roulette table with a single layout is usually worked by two "croupiers". A double-end table with two layouts is operated by either three or four croupiers. The croupier who spins the wheel and deals the game is called the "wheel roller" by casino employees. He does this as the ball slows down and is about to drop off the back track. The ball then drops into one of the slots as it begins to slow down. The numbers alternate between black and red. A dealer, or croupier spins the wheel in one direction and then rolls a small ball in the other direction. now, let's see how to play roulette. Here are thedifferent bets you can make. The house edge is the same whether youmake one bet per spin or several. Each player's chips are a different color. Sometimes the dealerwill ask you "Inside or Outside? " when you're buying chips, to findout whether you're making inside bets (the ones listed in purple in the table,on specific numbers) or outside bets (the ones listed in yellow, on kinds ofnumbers) There's no advantage tolimiting yourself to inside or outside. In other games the color of the chipdenotes the denomination, but in Roulette the color denotes only which playerthe chip belongs to. You can certainly switch toanother number if you want, but that won't improve or worsen your chances. Thechances of #27 coming up on a given spin are the same, whether it just come upon the last spin or not - 1 in 38. On an American wheel,there are 38 spots - numbers 1-36, plus 0 and 00. Your odds of winning aone-number bet are 37 to 1 (37 ways to lose, 1 way to win) The Europeanwheel has a lower house edge (2.63%) because it has only 37 slots instead of 38(no 00) Thelast time we checked, Single 0 Roulette was available at the Stratosphere andthe Monte Carlo on the Vegas Strip. European games have an option called en prison which reduces the house edgeto 1.35%, but it's generally not available in the U.S., even in casinos that usethe European wheel. On even money bets when 0 comes up, instead of losing rightaway, your bet is "imprisoned" and rides again for the next spin. Ifyou win the second spin, your bet is "released from prison" and youget it back. Usually it takes a minimum of $20 to buy-in at the roulette betting table. Players may bet larger amounts by using $1, $5 and $25 regular. It is important to note that these roulette chips must be cashed in at the table. They may not be removed from the table when the player leaves. A bet on 1 to 18, or 19 to 36, pays even money. All inside bets are paid by the dealer, directly to you. As mentioned. The dealer knows you are the winner by the color of your chips. Each game begins when the dealer (sometimes called croupier) spins the wheel in one direction, and then rolls a little ivory ball along the inner edge of the wheel in the opposite direction. Incidentally, there are about 90 spins or games played per hour, on average. You will notice on our illustration of the standard roulette wheel that the numbers are not consecutively arranged around the wheel. The player has a 1 in 37 chance of winning and still gets 35 to 1.
