Know the Roulette Types and Table Layout

The two basic types of wheels get distinguished by the number of zero slots on the wheel. The single zero in the European form makes it the more equitable, whereas the 00 slot in the American version of roulette raises the house advantage.

American Roulette wheel

The American roulette wheel has two green slots with the numbers 0 and 00 written in addition to the 36 standard numbers. All numerals consecutive and the same color get located on the opposite side of the wheel. This is the counterclockwise order of the normal numbers in American Roulette, which is likewise different from European Roulette: 0, 2, 14, 35, 23, 4, 16, 33, 21, 6, 18, 31, 19, 8, 12, 29, 25, 10, 27, 00, 1, and 13, 36, 24, 3, 15, 34, 22, 5, 17, 32, 20, 7, 11, 30, 26, 9, 28.

European Roulette wheel

Manufacturers don’t have to ensure that the European Roulette’s solitary zero slots are on the opposite side of the wheel from any numbers because there is only one zero slot. The sequence is different and goes like this clockwise: 26, 3, 35, 12, 28, 7, 29, 18, 22, 9, 31, 14, 20, 1, 33, 16, 24, 5, 10, 23, and 8, 30, 11, 36, 13, 27, 6, 34, 17, 25, 2, 21, 4, 19, 15, 32. The rule is still applicable to consecutive and same-color numbers.

French Roulette

The French and European Roulette games are similar save for the fact that French Roulette contains two additional rules called “En Prison” and “La Partage.”The first begins when the ball lands on zero, participants will not lose their bet but will receive another chance to make the Right prediction. By quickly refunding half of their stake if the ball lands on 0, “La Partage” also aids individuals who place an even money bet to recoup half of their initial investment.
