Roulette games
There is probably not a single online casino that does not offer a roulette game. This gambling game is one of the most popular. In an online casino, this is an electronic emulator. But many online casinos provide the opportunity to play with a real dealer (Life casino format), where a real traditional roulette table appears on the screen in front of the player.
Types of roulettes
Let's consider what types of roulettes exist and the degree of their popularity.
European
This type of roulette is quite common. It consists of 37 sectors with numbers from 0 (zero) to 36. All numbers are red or black, and zero is green. This game is more suitable for beginners, and it is better to use for developing different strategies and learning the nuances. In addition, this roulette game has traditional rules without any additions and the highest percentage of returns, that is, players will have more advantages - they will win more often compared to the casino.
American
It is considered a classic version and the most popular of all roulettes. Unlike European roulette, it also has a sector 00 (2 zero) and a different order of numbers on the reel. It is the double zero that will increase the odds of winning for the casino, making it more difficult to win. But despite this, her popularity does not decrease. The only thing is that it is not suitable for beginners, especially the variety with 000 (3 zero).
French
This roulette game has a different table layout, although the reel in it is used from European roulette: there is zero and numbers from 1 to 36. This game attracts with the additional En Prison rule, which provides players with a second chance to win on outside bets in case the ball lands on zero. In addition, the La Partage rule is a chance to get back some of your lost money if the ball lands on zero.
Non-standard types of roulettes
Also, along with the traditional ones, there are also the following types:
- mini roulette, which has only 3 sectors with numbers from 0 (zero) to 12;
- multi-roulette (with several reels) - it is much more difficult to play compared to the usual ones, but this option is attractive because there is the possibility of significantly larger winnings;
- roulette without zero – that is, there is no advantage for the casino.
In addition to the electronic version, there is a Live roulette format, where you can play any type of roulette with a real dealer. This option is preferred by those who were big fans of real casinos and find it difficult to adapt to the emulator. But on machines (roulette games, table games, slots) it will be much easier to implement strategies by providing free spins.
Rules, bets, strategies
Roulette has simple rules: bets are placed on a number or color and the dealer spins the reel. If the ball lands on the number or color (black, red) on which the bet was made, then the player receives a win. Different odds are used for the calculation: significantly more for numbers than for colors, since they have different probabilities of winning. But the biggest coefficient is zero. You can also place multiple bets, which increases the likelihood of winning, but the costs will be higher if the bets do not match.
Many games have their own strategies (slot games, card games, various table games) and roulette is no exception. But the most common strategy for this game is Martingale. This does not mean that with its help you can win all the time, but in case of failure you can exit with minimal financial losses. There are other strategies, but they are very complex and require experience.
