Roulette is a French word meaning “to roll.” It is a popular casino game that is played with a wheel or roulette wheel. The wheel has 36 slots, numbered from one to 36. When a player places a bet, the wheel is spun and the ball falls into one of the slots.
The player then watches as the ball drops down the slot and stops at a number on the wheel. If the ball lands on that number, the player has won that bet. If the ball lands on any other number, the player loses that bet.
