Players bet on numbers, spreads of number combinations and colors, generated by the fall of a small ivory ball onto a spinning wheel which is divided into 37 or 38 numbered slots, depending on the version being played. A clever player is one who understands the betting possibilities. American roulette wheels usually have both the “0” and “00” on the wheel. Corner Bet – A bet placed on the crossed lines in the middle of four numbers. Pays 8:1. Dozens Bet - The numbers between 1 and 36 are divided into three dozens. A roulette table with a single layout is usually worked by two "croupiers". He does this as the ball slows down and is about to drop off the back track. Bets placed on the layout after this announcement are not valid and must be returned to the player(s) American Roulette is played using a wheel that consists of thirty-eight slots, each with its own number. Both the 0 and 00 slots are green in color. The numbers on the roulette wheel alternate pairs of odd numbers with pairs of even numbers. The numbers alternate between black and red. Both the 0 and 00 slots are green in color. Roulette is the game where you guess where the little marble is going to dropon the spinning wheel. Roulette would be a great game were it not for the highhouse edge - usually 5.26%, sometimes as low as 2.63%, which is still higherthan blackjack, craps, or baccarat. now, let's see how to play roulette. When the ball is gettingready to drop, the dealer will wave his hand over the table, which means "Nomore bets". Then he'll scoop up all the losing bets towards the dealer area. 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. It most other games a bet usually wins only even money, butRoulette gives you the chance to win 35 times your bet (a winning bet placed ona single number) In this way, Roulette is more like slots - one single bet canwin a lot. " That means it doesn't know what it spunbefore, and even if it did, the wheel can't select what number comes up out ofits own volition. Here's another example: Since there are 38 slots on the wheel,we expect any given number to hit 1 out of 38 spins on average. 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. The Europeanwheel has a lower house edge (2.63%) because it has only 37 slots instead of 38(no 00) Atlantic City has a special rule whichreduces the house edge to 2.7% on even money bets (Red/Black, Odd/Even,1-18/19-36): If 0 or 00 comes up on on even money bet, you lose only half yourbet. Ifyou win the second spin, your bet is "released from prison" and youget it back. One to six players are seated at the roulette table. Players purchase special roulette chips, each player with his own color, so that the dealer can tell who made a winning bet and pay off that player. The chips generally have a set value of 25 or 50 cents. In roulette betting, a player may request whatever value he wishes for his chips, above the 25 cent or 50 cent standard amount. It is important to note that these roulette chips must be cashed in at the table. The same 2 to 1 odds are given for selecting any of the numbers in the three vertical columns of 12 numbers, located on one end of the betting surface For outside bets, the dealer will lay your winning chips alongside your original bet. It is up to you to pick up both your winnings and your original bet after the payoff. All inside bets are paid by the dealer, directly to you. As mentioned. In many instances, more than one coloured chip is on a winning number. In total, 38 numbers are represented on the betting layout. All red numbers are opposite the black numbers.
