Very little strategy is required as the game is completely random and based entirely on luck. This gives the players slightly better odds. Five Number Bet - This bet covers only the numbers 0, 00, 1, 2 and 3. Pays 6:1 if any one of the numbers comes up. Six Number Bet - Covers two rows of three numbers each. Column Bets - A bet on which of the three columns of numbers the ball may landon. Pays 2:1. There are two standard styles of roulette tables found in American casinos. 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. To keep it simple, we'll call him the "dealer" and his assistant the "croupier". The dealer spins the wheel in a counterclockwise direction then flips the ball on the bowl's back track so that it travels clockwise. A dealer (known as a croupier) spins the wheel in one direction and then rolls a small ball in the other direction. The ball then drops into one of the slots as it begins to slow down. The numbers on the roulette wheel alternate pairs of odd numbers with pairs of even numbers. Roulette is the game where you guess where the little marble is going to dropon the spinning wheel. For most bets it's fairly obvious - you can't miss theRed diamond for Red bets, and things like Even, 1-18, and 1st 12 are written outin plain English. Here are thedifferent bets you can make. In most games players can continuemaking bets even while the ball is still spinning. 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? If you're asked Inside or Outside, always answer "Both",even if you only intend to bet one or the other. Roulette chips can in fact be any denomination - $1, $5,$25, etc. For outside bets, any bet you make has to be the table minimum. Here's ahandy way to remember the payouts when you're betting on a set of numbers: Take36 divided by the quantity of numbers you're betting on, and subtract 1. If Black hascome up for the last 10 spins in a row, the next spin is not more likely to beRed. 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. Your odds of winning aone-number bet are 37 to 1 (37 ways to lose, 1 way to win) The differencebetween the true odds and what they actually pay you is 2/38, or 5.26%. Thelast time we checked, Single 0 Roulette was available at the Stratosphere andthe Monte Carlo on the Vegas Strip. 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. 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. It is important to note that these roulette chips must be cashed in at the table. The "outside" betting area consists of odd or even bets which pay even money. As mentioned. In many instances, more than one coloured chip is on a winning number. Again, your original bet is left on the number or combination of numbers and it is up to you to reclaim that bet. That number is the declared winner for that game. By design, they alternate between red and black and exactly opposite each other number is the corresponding higher and lower number. Run a ruler or any straight edge across the diagram and you will see that the O is opposite the 00, 1 is opposite the 2, and so on up to the 35 being directly opposite the 36. The single-0 European roulette wheel has a house edge of only 2.70%. The player has a 1 in 37 chance of winning and still gets 35 to 1.
