Roulette Online

Ever since this fascinating game was first introduced in the 18th century, it’s become a proud poster child for casinos around the world. Roulette may be French for ‘Little Wheel’, but there’s nothing little about this incredible experience.  

The objective is simple – place a bet on where you think the ball will land. Red or black? Inside or outside? It’s your call.

Is online roulette all luck?

Roulette is a game of chance, and it’s impossible to predict the outcome of a spin. That’s what makes it such a popular and exciting game – keeping players on the edge of their seats.

Some versions do have a higher house advantage than others however. For example, American typically has a house advantage of 5.26%, while French can be as low as 1.35%. There are also certain common strategies for betting, which some players like to adopt.

What is the safest bet in roulette?

There are no ‘safe bets’, as the results are purely by chance. However, some wagers have a higher chance of winning than others. For example, those with a nearly 50/50 chance of winning include:

• Red or black
• Odd or even
• Low or high

Because of this, the payout on these bets tend to be much lower.

What does 00 mean in online roulette?

If you are playing the American version, the wheel features two green numbers: 0 and 00. These can be bet on jointly (known as a row bet) or individually.

The odds for 00 are usually the same as betting on 0 in the European or French variants. However, with double the chance of landing on the green, American has a higher house advantage than other games.

What is the five number bet in roulette?

The five number bet is where players bet on five numbers consecutively.

It is only available on American tables, as it involves betting on the top line: 0, 00, 1, 2 and 3.

How do you win at roulette?

Roulette is, of course, a game of chance. But by understanding the rules and types of bet, playing the game and reading certain strategy guides, you can make more informed decisions about how much to bet, what type of bet to make, and where to place your wagers. Understanding how the odds work is also a great idea.

What is the most successful roulette strategy?

Popular strategies include the Martingale, the Labouchere, the Fibonacci and the Paroli. More unusual options such as Oscars’s Grind are also used by some players. No strategy is a guarantee of success, though expert tips can offer some insights into how to win at roulette.

Does a roulette wheel add up to ‘666’?

Yes. Somewhat strangely, the numbers on a standard roulette wheel are 0 to 36 – and these add up to 666 when combined. That’s why it’s sometimes humorously nicknamed ‘The Devil’s Wheel’.

How do you double your money in roulette?

Generally speaking, the simplest way to ‘double your money’ is to bet on red or black, high or low, or odd/even on the wheel. The odds of winning will be close to 50:50, and the payout is 1:1. So if you stake £10 and win you will get your original stake back, plus £10.
