Playing roulette with cards instead of chips is a great way to enjoy the excitement of the game without all the worry of losing your hard-earned money.
The basic steps for playing roulette with cards are as follows:
1) Choose your number bet. In American roulette, bets range from 1 to 36, while European roulette offers bets from 1 to 18.
2) Place your bet in either one or two chip denominations. In American roulette, bets can be in either $0.25, $0.50, $1, or $5 chip denominations. European roulette players can place their bets in euros (€0.10), pounds sterling (£0.
10), Swedish krona (SEK0.75), or Danish krone (DKK1).
3) The dealer will place a chip on each number in turn and offer you the chance to buy that number out for a set price – at which point the chip will be removed from the table and replaced by another from the dealer’s stack. If you want to bet on any other number, you must first raise your bet by putting another chip into the pot. In American roulette, this set price is usually 9 or 10 times the previous bet – so if you put in $5 chips and want to bet on number 6, the dealer would place a chip on number 6 and offer you the chance to buy it out for $40 ($5 x 9).
4) When all the numbers have been played, the dealer will remove all of the chips from the table and offer them for sale to the players in numerical order starting with 1 (the Lowest). The player who has bought all of the chips from the dealer pays out any winnings and collects any remaining chips.
