The history of Roulette game traces back to XVIII century. There are three variations of roulette one should know before entering the game – European, French and American. In the next paragraphs we will look at them more closely.
To start with, the wheel itself has two versions, European and American. The only significant differentiation is that the European (and French) “Wheel of Fortune” has a single zero (0) while the American wheel has both a single zero and double zero (00) cells. It is proved that this extra ‘00’-cell raises the casino benefit on most bets from 2.70% up to 5.26%.
The system of bets and payouts is the same in all cases, but a French version of roulette provides extra gambling opportunities. American and European bets are based on the arrangement of the figures on the table and are determined by the positioning of your chips, whereas French Roulette also permits you to make “Announces” which are called out to the croupier. These “Call” bets allow you to make bets on cells of the wheel itself.
To illustrate, you can bet 9 dibs, or multiples thereof, on the “Voisins de Zero” to include different combinations of the 17 “Zero Neighbor” numbers that gather round the single 0 on the wheel. A bet on the opposite side of the wheel is called the “Tier du Cylindre” and includes 12 numbers with 6 chips, two per chip. A wage on the lingering bow tie-shaped middle section of the wheel is called “Orphelins” and you wager 5 chips to cover the last 8 “Orphan” numbers.
Other ‘called’ bets are neighbor bets, which place one chip on the number announced and one chip on each of the two numbers on each side of the selected number on the wheel; and “Final” bets, which place a chip on all numbers that end with a certain digit, for example “Final 2” would place one chip each on 2, 12, 22 and 32.
Good Luck!
