How to Play Roulette?
Roulette is one of the simplest casino games you can play. The wheel doesn’t require any special knowledge, as you only place a bet and wait for it to spin. In that way, it’s pretty similar to slot games, although the differences in mechanics are vast and so are the payouts.
A classic European game of roulette will have 37 pockets on the wheel, alternating between red and black. That’s 1-36 in addition to a green 0 which represents the house edge (2.70%). Right next to the roulette wheel is a table with all the potential bets. Those allow you to bet on a single or a group of numbers with different payouts.
The main bet type is called Straight Up and means betting on a single number. This is by far the most lucrative roulette bet, paying 35:1. It’s also the hardest to hit. If you want a fair shot at a win, you should check out the inside or outside roulette bets. Those allow you to bet on a group of numbers for an adjusted payout, or red/black, even/odd numbers for 1:1 returns.
Roulette Variants
European roulette is the default variant of the game. But, there are others you can also try in our casino. French roulette is basically the same wheel with two extra rules – La Partage and En Prison. These cut back the house edge by splitting any losing even money bets between the player and casino.
Then there’s American roulette. Known as the most challenging of the three wheels, it introduces another zero. With 0 and 00 green pockets on the table, the house edge is up to 5.26%.
When playing roulette – especially the default European variant, you should always go with a strategy. While it’s still a game of luck, strategies will optimise your wins and minimise losses. Of course, you should first try them out on our free roulette games. Practice all you want and find the best approach before you set on a real money roulette journey.
