A Simple Guide to Roulette
In French, roulette means 'small wheel' and in the American version, the decision of each round of roulette is based on the number where the ball lands; one of the 38 holes positioned around the edge of the wheel. Each hole is numbered from 1 to 36 with a 0 at one end and 00 at the other end. You need to place any number of chips against any one of these numbers to place a basic bet. In case the ball lands on your chosen number, you win 35 chips for each chip you had bet.
As a part of a respectable strategy you have to leave your bet on the same numbers for each wheel spin and wait so that you can see how often those numbers come up. Most of the experienced players for this reason have their set of 'preferred or lucky numbers' that they usually stick to, with some variations.
Simplest options have better chances along with 1:1 payouts. Players would get one chip back for one bet. These are for betting on any one of the two colors the numbers are segregated into: black or red (for betting on an even or odd number that comes up or betting on a number in the upper or lower half). The roulette table has a grid of numbers and below that there are areas representing options.
Since in total there are 36 numbers, they are referred to as the first twelve, second twelve and third twelve. 2:1 payouts are carried the board of these areas which means that a player can get back two chips for every one he bets. The other way to bet is the selection of combination of numbers. The single number payout needs to be divided by the numbers in the combination. The payout for one number is 35:1, for two numbers 17:1, three numbers 11:1 and for four, 8:1.
