Guide to Online Roulette and online casinos

The game is played by rolling a small ball in one direction inside a numbered and slotted wheel. The wheel spins in the opposite direction. When the ball comes to rest in a slot, the winning number is decided. The wheel has 18 red slots and 18 black slots. A european roulette wheel has one green slot for the number 0 whilst the American based slot sometimes has an additional 00 green slot.

Roulette Bets

The standard double-zero wheel gives the house a 5.26% edge. European roulette is however played on a wheel that contains only one zero and reduces the house edge to 2.70%. The general classification of bets are Inside bets (made on numbers directly inside the numbered table), and Outside bets (made on the betting area surrounding the number layout).

The inside bets:

Single Number - Betting on a single number, Double Zero or Zero - Pays 35 to 1
Split Bet - Betting on two numbers by placing the chip on the line separating the two numbers you wish to bet on - Pays 17 to 1
Corner Bet - Betting on four numbers by placing the chip on the intersection of the 4 numbers you wish to bet on - Pays 8 to 1
Street Bet - Betting on a row of three numbers by placing the chip on the line at the edge of the row you wish to bet on - Pays 11 to 1
Special Line Bet - One of a kind bet made by betting on the 5 adjoined numbers (american) of 0, 00, 1, 2, and 3 - Pays 6 to 1
Line Bet - Similar to the street bet but you now bet on 2 rows simultaneously - Pays 5 to 1
