The Basics of Roullete
by admin
Roullete (pronounced “roo-LEE”) is a game where you wager on the outcome of a spinning wheel. The wheel has 36 numbers and a 0 (or on some American tables, a 00). A croupier spins the wheel and a small ball then goes around the table, landing in a number slot. Players can place bets on the individual numbers, groups of numbers, the color red or black and whether the number is odd or even. The odds of winning a bet depend on the type of bet and the payouts are determined by the house edge.
When you start playing roulette, it’s important to choose a table that offers a minimum betting amount within your budget. The placard on the table will usually describe the minimum and maximum bets. If you aren’t comfortable with the minimum, move on to another table until you find one that suits your needs.
A Roulette Ball
Roulette balls are made from resin, Teflon or sometimes ceramic, but they are all designed to resemble ivory in both appearance and weight. The material used in the ball can have an impact on the gameplay, especially when it comes to the speed at which the ball lands. A light, ceramic ball will spin faster and jump more unpredictably around the table than a heavy, traditional ivorine ball.
Outside Bets
The most common bets in roulette are called “outside bets” and they cover a broad range of numbers on the table map. These bets are safer plays because you’re essentially betting on a group of numbers rather than specific ones, and they tend to pay out at a higher rate than inside bets.
Among the most popular outside bets are the Straight Bet and the Dozens Bet. The Straight Bet is placed on a single number and pays 35-1 if it wins. The Dozens Bet, known as the tiers in French, is placed on the first 12 or second 12 or third 12 numbers and pays 2-1 if it wins.
The Line Bet, or Sixline Bet in French, is a more advanced play that requires fewer chips. It’s similar to the Street Bet, except you’re placing your chip(s) to straddle a horizontal line between two rows of three numbers. The Line Bet is a less risky bet than the Street, but it doesn’t offer as high of a payout. The Split Bet is also referred to as a cheval in French, and it’s placed by placing your chip(s) to straddle the line between two adjacent numbers on the table map. The payout is 5-1.
