Very little strategy is required as the game is completely random and based entirely on luck. Straight Up Bet - A chip is placed on one of the numbers. Pays 35:1. Six Number Bet - Covers two rows of three numbers each. A bet placed on the ball landing on red or black, high or low numbers, odds or even numbers. Dozens Bet - The numbers between 1 and 36 are divided into three dozens. 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. A roulette table with a single layout is usually worked by two "croupiers". The players begin by making their bets, placing chips on the spaces of the layout in the manner permitted by the applicable rules for the area/state/country etc. The dealer spins the wheel in a counterclockwise direction then flips the ball on the bowl's back track so that it travels clockwise. He does this as the ball slows down and is about to drop off the back track. The numbers alternate between black and red. 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. You should always calculate your expectedloss and how long you can play on a given bankroll before playing any game, butwith roulette it's especially important. you will likely lose money faster the morebets you make, because you're betting more. 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. Don't reach for your winnings until the dealerremoves the marker, or the dealer will scold you. If you're asked Inside or Outside, always answer "Both",even if you only intend to bet one or the other. There's no advantage tolimiting yourself to inside or outside. Inside bets canusually be as small a you like, as long as the total of all your inside bets isthe table minimum. In this way, Roulette is more like slots - one single bet canwin a lot. It's important tounderstand that the outcome of the roulette wheel is truly random. 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. if you win, thecasino doesn't pay you 37 to 1, they pay you less - 35 to 1. 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. 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. Ifyou win the second spin, your bet is "released from prison" and youget it back. You don't get paid for the win, though, but it's better than losingit outright. 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. Actually, you can pick up a total of 36 chips which includes your original bet. A bet on 1 to 18, or 19 to 36, pays even money. You will get 2-to-1 odds if you select the winning number within the first, second or third dozen numbers. The dealer knows you are the winner by the color of your chips. 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. Naturally, you can let it ride again on the next roll or even add other chips from your winnings. The house edge is set at 5.26%, resulting from the player receiving odds of 35 to 1 rather than the true odds of 1 in 36 or 37 to 1. The player has a 1 in 37 chance of winning and still gets 35 to 1.
