The game of roulette is a popular casino game that is played with a wheel and a number of bet options. Roulette is one of the simplest games to play, but it can be complex and difficult to understand.
In this article, we will discuss how to play roulette and the different bet options available.
How Do You Play Roulette?
To play roulette, you will need to bring your own wheel and place it on the table in front of you. The wheel has 36 slots, each of which can hold one number. The dealer will spin the wheel and allow players to place bets on the numbers that appear on the wheel. Betting starts at 20 French francs (about $25 U.
S.), and goes up in increments of 10 francs. The dealer will then offer you another bet option, which you can accept or decline. The game ends when either the ball falls off the wheel or all bets have been placed.
What Are the Different Bet Options Available?
There are a variety of bet options available at roulette, including straight bets (such as black or red), even money bets (two numbers that are both same), odd money bets (two numbers that are different), and French bets (a number set by the house). You can also place supererogatory bets (bets that are not required to win a bet but increase your chances of winning) on different European numbers, such as 2-6-8 or 3-2-1.
Finally, you can make multiple bets on the same number by placing multiple chips on it. For example, if you want to bet $10 on slot number 2 and $5 on slot number 3, you would place two chips on slot number 2 and one chip on slot number 3.
What Are the Different Winning Outcomes Available at Roulette?
There are six possible outcomes that can occur when playing roulette: blackjack (21), red (18), even money (0), odd money (2-19), French (6-5-4), and super supplementary (10-9-8). Blackjack is the only outcome where the player automatically wins if they get a total of 21 cards from either deck; red pays out if your total sum is between 18 and 21; even money pays out if your total sum is 0; odd money pays out if your total sum is 2 through 19; French pays out if your total sum matches 6 plus 5 plus 4; super supplementary pays out 10 plus 9 plus 8.
There are also tiered payouts for some outcomes, such as blackjack paying out 1:1 for a total of 21 or even money paying out 1:1 for sums totaling between 0 and 19. Finally, there are compound odds for some outcomes, such as blackjack paying out 2:1 for any hand totaling 21 or more cards.
