Some European casinos have only a “0”. Straight Up Bet - A chip is placed on one of the numbers. Pays 35:1. The chip is placed on the outside line of the two rowscovered. Pays 5:1. A bet placed on the ball landing on red or black, high or low numbers, odds or even numbers. 1-12, 13-24 and25-36. Pays 2:1. Roulette is said by some to have been started or invented way back in 1655 by the French scientist Blaise Pascal, during his monastic retreat, and first played in a makeshift casino in Paris. Other historians claim however that a French monk invented it in order to help break some of the monotony of daily monastery life. One is the standard table, which has one betting layout with the roulette wheel at one end; the other, called the double-end table, has two layouts with the wheel in the center between them. The dealer spins the wheel in a counterclockwise direction then flips the ball on the bowl's back track so that it travels clockwise. The numbers alternate between black and red. The ball then drops into one of the slots as it begins to slow down. The French roulette wheel has 36 numbers, and only the single zero, unlike the American roulette wheel which has the numbers 1 to 36 but with two zeros (0 and 00) That aside, French roulette is very similar to American roulette. We've added blue circled letters to the diagram to point outhow to make the not-so-obvious bets (the sets of 2-6 numbers) In most games players can continuemaking bets even while the ball is still spinning. Don't reach for your winnings until the dealerremoves the marker, or the dealer will scold you. Each player's chips are a different color. That's because if you're betting only inside and someone else isbetting only outside, he can give you both the same color chips and there won'tbe any confusion. That way, you're not locked inand you always have the ability to change your mind. When you buy in, tell the dealer what denomination you want. Remember thatyou can bet inside or outside if you like; there's no requirement to bet both ona given spin. 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) There's an old saying,"The wheel has no memory. " 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. The wheel has no memory. Your odds of winning aone-number bet are 37 to 1 (37 ways to lose, 1 way to win) if you win, thecasino doesn't pay you 37 to 1, they pay you less - 35 to 1. If you play Roulette, the most important thing is to find a casino thatoffers the European wheel (which is called "Single 0" Roulette) 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. The dealer will specify the worth of that particular coloured chip by mating a sample chip which is placed upon the rim of the wheel. They may not be removed from the table when the player leaves. If that number wins you'll receive 35 to 1 for every chip you have bet. All inside bets are paid by the dealer, directly to you. As mentioned. Again, your original bet is left on the number or combination of numbers and it is up to you to reclaim that bet. Naturally, you can let it ride again on the next roll or even add other chips from your winnings. As the wheel turns, the ball loses momentum. It bounces among the slots and finally falls into one of the numbered slots. 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 player has a 1 in 37 chance of winning and still gets 35 to 1.
