Background on Roulette
No one really knows for sure when Roulette was first invented, but it is thought to have originated in France in the 17th century. Roulette is a popular casino game that is played with a wheel of 36 slots that are labeled one number at a time.
The player bets on one of the numbers on the wheel, and if the number they bet on comes up, they win the bet and receive the associated payout. If the number they bet on doesn’t come up, they lose their bet and any associated payout.
How to Play Roulette
To play Roulette, you will need to place a bet by placing a token or coin into one of the numbered slots on the wheel. Once you’ve placed your bet, spin the wheel and watch as the numbers come up. If you want to wager on a specific number, you can use a roulette wheel pointer to help you stay focused on the correct slot. When the wheel stops spinning, look at your selected number and see if it’s highlighted in green or red.
If it’s in green, then you’ve won your bet and receive your payout – if it’s in red, then you’ve lost your bet and no payout is given. There are other variants of Roulette (such as American Roulette), but these are generally less popular than European Roulette.
