Chris Boyd seemed to be the craziest gambler in history. In 1994 he decided to fulfill his dream in the casino of Las Vegas on the Roulette wheel. He had saved up 0,000 and he wanted to risk and to put this sum on one spin. He searched around Las Vegas for a casino that would actually take his bet. With refusals from most of the major casinos, Chris was referred to Binion’s Horseshoe Club. The maximum bet available was 0,000, but the casino let him make a 0,000 bet. 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 decided 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 European wheel - also known as the Single Zero roulette or sometimes French Roulette is very similar to the American wheel. The greatest difference between the European and the American wheel is the fact that European wheel only has a single zero - whereas American wheel has a single zero and a double zero. The European table is more beautiful in symmetry while the American table is more practical during play because the red/black and odd/even are placed right next to each other, and the first18/last18 betting spots are placed right next to the single numbers. Thanks to the single zero the European roulette players have better odds than the American roulette players. American roulette wheel consists of 38 numbered slots: numbers 1 to 36, a zero, and a double zero. The betting layout contains every individual number and a host of "outside" or combinations of numbers. After the players make their bets the dealer spins the wheel and a ball and after several seconds the ball will land in one of the numbered slots. |
