A double-end table with two layouts is operated by either three or four croupiers. The dealer spins the wheel in a counterclockwise direction then flips the ball on the bowl's back track so that it travels clockwise. Bets placed on the layout after this announcement are not valid and must be returned to the player(s) Both the 0 and 00 slots are green in color. 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. Both the 0 and 00 slots are green in color. 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) Here are thedifferent bets you can make. You don't have to make just one kind of bet foreach spin, you can make several, and you win if the ball lands on any of yournumbers. you will likely lose money faster the morebets you make, because you're betting more. When the ball falls into a slot, the dealer will announce thenumber and the color, and place a marker on the layout where the winning numberis. That way iftwo players bet on the same number (or set of numbers), then the dealer knowswho to pay, and arguments can't arise over who bet what. Sometimes the dealerwill ask you "Inside or Outside? 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. 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. When you buy in, tell the dealer what denomination you want. 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) " 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. It's more important to know what the house edge is, than how to calculateit, but here's a quick analysis in case you're interested. On an American wheel,there are 38 spots - numbers 1-36, plus 0 and 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. You don't get paid for the win, though, but it's better than losingit outright. A stack of twenty 25-cent chips is valued at $5.00, and a stack of twenty 50-cent chips is worth $10. It is important to note that these roulette chips must be cashed in at the table. Actually, you can pick up a total of 36 chips which includes your original bet. Additional combinations in this "inside" betting area are: one chip on a six number bet (pays 5 to 1); one chip on any four connecting numbers (pays 8 to 1); one chip on any connecting group of three numbers (11-1); one chip place between two connecting numbers (17-to-1) You will get 2-to-1 odds if you select the winning number within the first, second or third dozen numbers. 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. In total, 38 numbers are represented on the betting layout. As the wheel turns, the ball loses momentum. It bounces among the slots and finally falls into one of the numbered slots. 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.
