How to Play Roulette
Roulette is a casino game in which you predict where a ball will land on a numbered wheel. In European roulette, the wheel has 37 pockets: numbers 1β36 and a single zero.
Choose your bet
Select a chip, then click a number, colour or outside betting area. Your stake is deducted from your practice balance.
Spin the wheel
Click Spin the Wheel. A number from 0 to 36 is selected. Your bets are settled against the result.
Check your payout
Winning bets return your original stake plus the payout. Losing bets are not returned. The zero wins against ordinary red/black, odd/even and low/high bets.
Roulette Payouts Explained
| Bet type | Example | Profit payout |
|---|---|---|
| Straight up | One number | 35 to 1 |
| Dozen | 1β12, 13β24 or 25β36 | 2 to 1 |
| Red or black | One colour | 1 to 1 |
| Odd or even | Odd or even number | 1 to 1 |
| Low or high | 1β18 or 19β36 | 1 to 1 |
Payouts above show profit relative to the stake; a winning bet also returns the original stake. Zero is neither red nor black, odd nor even, and is outside both low and high ranges.
European roulette has a theoretical house edge of approximately 2.70% on standard even-money bets. No betting system can remove the mathematical house edge or guarantee profit.
