There is no one riskier bet than roulette in a casino. The odds of any given number coming up are about 1 in 36,000. So, if you bet $100 on black, your chances of winning are about $3.
60 per spin. If you bet on red, your chances are about 1 in 18,000 and the same for black and green. .
The house edge on roulette is about 2.9%. This means that for every $100 you bet, the casino will earn an additional $2.90. So if you bet $100 on black and the ball comes up black, the casino will have earned $3.60 from your bet and they will also have taken another $0.30 from the $100 you placed on red to cover the house edge on red (which is also 2.
9%). This means that your net profit after paying the house edge is $0.70 ($3.60 + 0.30 = $3.90).
So while it may be tempting to place a risky bet like red on roulette in hopes of hitting it big, doing so is actually one of the riskiest bets that you can make in a casino!.
