EUROPEAN ROULETTE RULES
EUROPEAN ROULETTE Rules
European Roulette table has a spinning wheel with 37 slots or pockets. The pockets are numbered from 1 to 36 and coloured red or black except for a special “zero” pocket that is marked with green. Players make bets on outcomes of the round. The roulette wheel is then spun up and a ball is thrown into it against the direction of spinning. When the ball settles down and rests in a pocket, the number on the pocket that has caught the ball wins. All pockets are identical and the order and position of numbers are arranged mathematically for even distribution by value, colour, high or low and odd or even so that the ball has an equal chance to end up in any of them.
European Roulette Betting Table: Inside Bets
When betting on the inside, a player is required to make bets that at least add up to the table minimum. The table is comprised of black and red coming from 1 to 36. Zero is the green square that’s located on the inside table usually atop of the number columns. Different combinations of bets are available on the inside table. Combinations are only valid within the inner table. Here comes the list:
• “Straight up bet” - a bet on a single number. The payoff is 35 to 1.
• “Split bet” allows you to place a bet (a casino chip) on two adjacent squares. The payoff is 17 to 1.
• “Street bet” allows you to bet on a row (that is three numbers). Consequently your chip must be placed on the outer edge of the row. Street bets pay 11 to 1.
• “Line bet” allows you to make two street bets - six numbers - and pays 5 to 1.
• “Corner bet” is a situation when you place your bet on four adjacent squares. Corners pay 8 to 1.
• “Five bet” is not available in European roulette.
European Roulette Betting Table: Outside bets
When betting on the outside every single bet a player makes must at least match the table minimum. Outside bets do not cover zeroes. Online casinos don’t normally offer the surrender rule. The outside is comprised from a number of betting conditions:
• “Dozens” - three squares that represents outcomes from 1 to 12, 13 o 24 and 25 to 36. 2 to 1 payoff - this is a double bet.
• “High and low” - two squares for the bottom half of the numbers (1 to 18 and 19 to 35). 1 to 1 payoff - this is an even bet.
• “Colours” - two squares for red and black outcomes. Also an even bet!
• “Odd and even” - two squares representing odd and even outcomes respectively. Even bet!
• “Columns” - three squares that attached to the bottom of the inside table. Columns usually have “2:1″ written inside the square. With them you can bet on an entire column of numbers. As you would have guessed by now it is indeed a double bet.
