Roulette Basics

Roulette name

Roulette (sometimes known as 'rulet') is a casino game named after a French diminutive for "little wheel". In the game, players may choose to place bets on either a single number or a range of numbers, the colors red or black, or whether the number is odd or even.

Origin of roulette game

The game has been played in its present form since as early as 1796 in Paris. An early description of the roulette game in its current form is found in a French novel La Roulette, ou le Jour by Jaques Lablee, which describes a roulette wheel in the Palais Royal in Paris in 1796. The description included the house pockets, "There are exactly two slots reserved for the bank, whence it derives its sole mathematical advantage." It then goes on to describe the layout with, "...two betting spaces containing the bank's two numbers, zero and double zero

Basics of Roulette

The Basics

The Game:
Roulette is a game that gives a player the chance to earn big winnings. Most online casino roulette games are based on standard American Double Zero roulette, according to the standard rules of the Nevada Gaming Commission. An ivory ball circles in the rotating roulette wheel that consists of 36 numbers plus 0 and 00. Eventually, the ball stops randomly on one of the 38 numbers. The player's job is to predict the outcome of each spin by placing bets in the fields of the roulette table. Each player wagers against the bank. Your winnings will be based on how well you have predicted the ball's final resting place by placing your chips accordingly.

How to Play:

Use your cursor and left mouse button to select the chip that you wish to wager. Next, place the chip on the roulette table by clicking on the desired table field. You can regret a wagered chip before the game begins by clicking on the wagered chip with your left mouse button and dragging it off of the playing surface. When you have placed your bets, press the SPIN button to activate the roulette wheel.

If you would like to bet on the same number(s) during the next spin, click on the last bet button. Then click on spin to start the next round.
