Roulette is a popular casino game that is played with a wheel containing 36 numbered slots. The object of the game is to bet on any number, and then predict whether or not the number that has been put in the wheel will come up.
There are 36 slots in a roulette table, which means that there are 3, 6, 10, and 18 possible combinations that can happen when a ball is dropped into one of those slots. The odds of any given number coming up in a roulette spin are about 1 in 36.
That means that for every four spins of the wheel, one of the numbers will be selected as the winning number. However, because roulette players can also bet on “odds” or “house” favorites, the house advantage for a roulette table ranges from about 0.66 to 2.27 percent.
That means that for every $100 that is wagered at a roulette table, the house will make about $2.27 back in winnings.
