Another type of roulette is the European wheel which is also known as the Single Zero roulette or sometimes French Roulette and it's resembles 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. As 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 on the american table it is more practical during the game, but the European table is more more beautiful in symmetry. Thanks to the single zero the European roulette players have better odds than the American roulette players.

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. As gambling was illegal in France in the 19th century, the game was introduced in Hamburg, Germany where it became very popular and replaced an earlier version that featured higher odds. Later the game of Roulette was brought back to France and the Prince of Monaco loved this game a lot. In the 1800s the game of Roulette was introduced to the US public. The improvements were deleted, and a double "00" returned. The game became popular in the old west of America. It is very difficult to release the ball with the same speed, but some dealers can do this. It is called a dealer signature. As long as there is little or no deflection from the metal stops on the roulette wheel it is possible to predict where the ball will drop. If the number repeats within 100 spins you can turn this to your advantage as this is a biased wheel. If you want to overcome the casino’s advantage then the biased wheel is your chance. There are special chips for playing the game of Roulette. The chips have to be bought before playing the game. Don’t forget to exchange you Roulette chips for regular casino chips before you leave the Roulette table. Try to avoid 5 number bets, as it has the least profitable payback of all the bets. 5 number bets have the house edge of 7. 89 percent. If you choose between European and American Roulette, then play European Roulette as here you have more chances of winning. When playing European Roulette don’t forget about the Surrender option. When playing any game you must always stick to your own bank roll.
