What Does A Casino Roulette Table Look Like?

One way to get a hand at Roulette games is to have a basic understanding of how the game works. You should know that Roulette has different variants. The numbers and strategies are respectively different depending on the variants. The differences may be confusing, but they shouldn’t.

European Wheel

The European Roulette is the most common Roulette table that players from around the globe play on. There is only one zero slot in European Roulette, that appears as ‘0’ on the Roulette wheel and table layout. There are 37 pockets all in all, including the single zero slot. The European Roulette has a house advantage of 2.7%%.

0, 32, 15, 19, 4, 21, 2, 25, 17, 34, 6, 27, 13, 36, 11, 30, 8, 23, 10,
5, 24, 16, 33, 1, 20, 14, 31, 9, 22, 18, 29, 7, 28, 12, 35, 3, 26

French Wheel

The French Roulette is the oldest version of Roulette. Just like in European Roulette, the French Roulette also has only 37 pockets including one zero all in all. The French Roulette table noticeably differs in terms of the language used to name the pockets on the Roulette table. Unlike in European and American Roulettes, the French Roulette is the most favourite variant because it has the house advantage of only 1.3%.

0, 32, 15, 19, 4, 21, 2, 25, 17, 34, 6, 27, 13, 36, 11, 30, 8, 23, 10,
5, 24, 16, 33, 1, 20, 14, 31, 9, 22, 18, 29, 7, 28, 12, 35, 3, 26

American Wheel

The American Roulette has an additional zero green slot that appears as ‘00’ on the Roulette wheel and table layout. There are 38 pockets all in all, including the single zero and the double zero slots. This actually gives the casino the most house advantage of 5.26%.

0, 28, 9, 26, 30, 11, 7, 20, 32, 17, 5, 22, 34, 15, 3, 24, 36, 13, 1,
00, 27, 10, 25, 29, 12, 8, 19, 31, 18, 6, 21, 33, 16, 4, 23, 35, 14, 2

Differences in rules and odds

Since the Roulette table has three different variants, the only difference in terms of the rules and odds would be:

• The statistical probability of payouts for each bet made
• The strategies used for each different Roulette table variant
• The casino house advantage
• The number of pockets the Roulette has
• The bets that can be made for each different table variant

How to place bets on the Roulette table

Outside Bets

Outside bets are the slots that can be found outside the boxes where the single numbers are placed on the Roulette table layout.

Red or Black

You make a bet on the colours of the numbers where the ball will possibly land on the Roulette wheel. The numbers will either be marked red or black.

Odd or Even

• Odd numbers are numbers that end in one, three, five, seven, or nine.
• Even numbers are numbers that end in zero, two, four, six, or eight.

You make a bet on whether the ball will land on an odd number or an even number. This
is marked even and odd on the Roulette table.

1-18 / Low

You make a bet in hopes that the ball falls on any number within 1 to 18. This is an even-money bet.

19-36 / High

You make a bet in hopes that the ball falls on any number within 19-26. This is also an even-money bet.

Dozens

This type of outside bet covers twelve numbers but in order. Each dozen pays 2:1, or even double your bet.

• 1st twelve – Covers the ball landing on numbers within 1-12.
• 2nd twelve – Covers the ball landing on numbers within 13-24.
• 3rd twelve – Covers the ball landing on numbers 25-36.

Columns

You bet on a whole column of numbers. Just like dozen outside bets, column outside
bets also pay 2:1, or even double your bet.

• Column one – Covers the ball landing on the numbers 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34.
• Column two – Covers the ball landing on the numbers 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26, 29, 32, 35.
• Column three – Covers on the ball landing on the numbers 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36.

Final Bet

Final bets are made on single zero Roulette wheels , mainly on European and French Roulettes. You make a bet on the last digit of any number that you think the ball will land on.

• For example, you make a “final 4” bet. This means you are betting on all numbers that end in four. Such as 4, 14, 24, and 34.
• Make a bet on “final 7”, and you’re betting on numbers that end in seven. Such as 7, 17, and 27.
