How to Play Roulette – The Basic:
Roulette is played like this: Up to 8 players (up against the house or casino) have a choice to place bets on either: a number, a range of numbers, the colors red or black, or whether the number is odd or even. To determine the winning number and color, a croupier, also known as a dealer, spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular track running around the circumference of the wheel. The wheel is a black and red coloured wheel with numbers nicely positioned around its circumference. As expected, due to law of science, the ball will eventually lose momentum and fall on to the wheel and into one of 37 (in European roulette) or 38 (in American roulette) coloured and numbered pockets on the wheel. The player who wins is the one who correctly predicts where the ball will land on the wheel.
How to Play Roulette – The Payouts and House Advantage:
On a single zero roulette table, the house advantage is 2.7 while on a double zero roulette table it is 5.26 . A bet on one number only is called a straight up and pays 35 to 1. You’ll be paid 36. However, with no house advantage, what you should be getting 37 in European Roulette and 38 in the USA on double zero roulette wheels. In roulette this is the biggest win possible but the probability of getting it is very low due to the house advantage. Hence, to win, players simply avoid betting on a single number by betting on smaller possibilities and hoping the numbers (winnings) add up at the end. You should always try to play on a European table as this will give you better odds of winning against the house overall.
