HOW TO PLAY ROULETTE

Roulette is a simple game to learn and play that offers players a wide range of betting options from conservative to long shot with everything in between. Players cash in at the table and are issued special colored chips. These chips are unique to the Roulette table and are not valid at other games. Chips are usually issued at the minimum bet value, but a player can request a higher value for his chips when cashing in. If a higher value is requested the dealer will mark that color with the requested value. Roulette tables have space for six to eight people with each player getting different colored chips to make it easy for the dealer to track bets.

OUTSIDE BETS INSIDE BETS RED OR BLACK SINGLE NUMBER BET ODD OR EVEN SPLIT BET (TWO NUMBERS) LOW (1–18) OR HIGH (19–36) CORNER BET (FOUR NUMBERS) COLUMNS (12 NUMBERS) FIVE NUMBER BET DOZENS (12 NUMBERS) STREET BET (3 NUMBERS) LINE BET (6 NUMBERS)

Minimum and maximum bet amounts are posted at the table. Some casinos have a minimum bet amount for Inside or Outside Bets. Inside bets are on specific numbers or combinations of numbers. Outside bets are on groups of numbers or colors. An Outside bet always loses on 0 or 00. There are ten different bets in American Roulette and nine different bets in European Roulette. The unique American Roulette bet is a Five Number bet which is the only bet to avoid in Roulette.
