Chris Boyd seemed to be the craziest gambler in history. In January of 1994, Chris followed his dream to the casinos of Las Vegas for the ultimate roulette spin. He had saved up 0,000 and he wanted to risk and to put this sum on one spin. It wasn’t very easy to find a casino that would let him make such a huge bet. Having got refusals in most of the casinos Chris went to Binion’s Horseshoe Club, which was the last casino he visited. The Horseshoe Club had a limit of 0,000 on a red/black bet, but they agreed to accept his wager. The casino also agreed to block out the double-zero on the wheel as this didn’t exist in the European version of the game that Chris was used to playing. Chris chose to place his bet on red. The casino and the dealer agreed to a few practice spins to ensure that full fairness for everyone concerned, and then the big spin came. The ball landed in number 7, red. Chris won 0,000 instantly, and asked for the money to be put into the casinos cage, and vowed never to gamble again.

The table for real and online Roulette is the same, there is no difference. There are areas with 36 numbers, zero or zeros and a set of all bets a player can make. Most online roulette games feature exactly the same table.
As a rule the color of the Roulette table in online casino is green. The only concern with the online roulette table is that there are not too many people playing there because if that is the case and there are simply way too many chips flying around everywhere, not only will it start to get confusing but arguments may break out over which chips belong to whom. The main feature is lower bet limits. If you have never played online Roulette before you should get acquainted with bet limits. There are upper table limits as well, typically varying for every type of bet in a fixed proportion. The betting table is divided into 2 areas: outside and inside area. On inside table you can make bets on individual numbers or on a combination of numbers, on outside table you can make bets on non-numeric conditions. The inside table. The inside table contains 3 columns of sequential numbers. The zero (and double zero for American roulette) can be found above this table, and the column bet fields are below (they technically belong to the outside table). To the right or to the left side of the inside table the outside table can be found. The minimum wager for bets in the inside area are shown on the table itself, and players can make bets lower than this minimum limit. The outside table. On the outside table there are special bets, which are not bets on numbers. The bet amount on the outside table can’t be lower the minimum limit. The three squares attached to the inside table represent dozens. Betting on each dozen wins when any number within that dozen is played out. The next row is comprised of three pairs of cubicles. The outer squares are the "high/low bets": you can bet either on low (1 to 18) or high (19 to 36) half of the numbers. The counterpart of high/low is "odd/even": you bet on odd or even numbers respectively. The innermost squares are indeed "red/black": similar to the bets above, you respectively bet on red or black numbers. A "column bet" is a bet on either of three columns of 12 numbers when the chips are placed in the column squares under the number table. Remember that any bet in the outside table excludes zero and double zero. Consider this if you are planning on a strategy. |
The world 'roulette' means 'a small wheel' in French. Blaise Pascal invented the original version of the game in the 17th century. Frenchmen Francois and Louis Blanc invented the single "0" roulette game in 1842. In the 19th century casino gambling was forbidden in France, that's why the game wasn't so well-known in France, but it was very popular in Hamburg and Germany. Later Francois and his son Camille were responsible for bringing the game of Roulette back to southern France for the Prince of Monaco, Charles III. The game of Roulette was brought to the USA at the beginning of the 19th century. Some additional features were deleted and the game got a double zero back. The game became popular in the old west of America.
1. The wheel is not well balanced. Unbalance wheel is a good thing for unfair gamblers. They turn it to their advantage in order to make some fast cash. But nowadays even if you try hard you will never find such a wheel. Knowing the story of Jaggers casinos constantly examine the wheels in order to make sure that they are well balanced. The casino staff examine the wheel every time before gamblers begin to play. In the case of an unbalanced wheel they recalibrate it at once. 2. Another myth is that as more spins occur, players have a better opportunity of hitting a number that has not been hit yet. It is a mistake. Every number has the same chance of hitting-38:1. It is not right to bet on a number only because it hasn’t hit for a long period of time. Roulette is a pure game of chance. With every spin the chances of hitting any number are 38:1.
