American Roulette

Here you can find the rules of the game American Roulette.

There are several types of roulette. Our casino offers American roulette with one “Zero”.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ROULETTE

  • The American roulette table consists of two parts: the wheel and the playing field.
  • The drum contains numbers from 0 (Zero) to 36, which are located randomly. The winning number is determined by a ball that is launched by the dealer, who is leading the game.
  • The same numbers are also on the playing field. For the convenience of all participants in the game, they are arranged in order.
  • The goal of the game of Roulette is to guess which number the ball will land on and make the required bet.

GAME TOKENS

  • Tokens for the game can be purchased at the casino cash desk. The game is played with two types of tokens: those with a monetary value (cash tokens) and colored tokens intended for play only on a given table.
  • Colored tokens from one table cannot be used at other tables.
  • Each player can choose tokens of one of the free colors, which only he uses during the game.
  • Colored tokens do not have a strictly defined denomination.
  • Each player can play only one color and determine the price of the color token, which is within the maximum and minimum bet on the “Straight Up” of the game table. The cost of the token is indicated by a special marker.
  • After finishing the game, you need to exchange the colored tokens with the dealer for tokens with a monetary value, which you can use to continue playing at any other table, or exchange them at the casino cashier.

GAME PROCESS

  • At the invitation of the dealer, players personally or with the help of the dealer place their chips on the main and/or additional field of American roulette.
  • The ball is then spun against the direction of the roulette wheel.
  • Bets can be made both before the ball is launched and during its rotation.
  • Three rounds before the ball falls, the dealer announces the end of betting. After this, bets are not accepted, taken, changed or returned.
  • Bets made by a player after the dealer announces “No bets” are considered invalid.
  • After the ball falls into one of the numbered cells, the dealer announces the winning number and places a special marker on it – “Dolly”.
  • Losing bets are removed from the field, and winning bets are paid according to the rules.
  • Once the marker is removed from the number, new bets are accepted and the whole cycle repeats from the beginning.

RATES AND PAYMENTS

There are three types of bets:

  • Outside Bets – bets in which chips are placed on additional areas of the Roulette table (for example, a bet on the “Dozen”).
  • Inside Bets – bets directly on individual numbers or a group of numbers. Chips are placed on a numbered area of ​​the game table.
  • Call Bets – bets on “Series” and “Neighbors”.

The player can place (himself or with the help of the dealer) the following bets on the roulette playing field and receive the corresponding payouts for them in case of winning:

  1. External rates

The simple odds are 18 winning numbers:

  • “Red” – Red numbers = 1:1
  • “Black” – Black numbers = 1:1
  • “EVEN” – Even numbers = 1:1
  • “ODD” – Odd numbers = 1:1
  • “1-18” – Low odds = 1:1
  • “19-36” – High odds = 1:1

Dozen – 12 numbers located on the playing field in a row.

Column – 12 numbers located on the playing field in a column.

  • The first dozen are numbers from 1 to 12 = 2:1
  • The second dozen – numbers from 13 to 24 = 2:1
  • Third dozen – numbers from 25 to 36 = 2:1
  • Column – 12 numbers = 2:1

2. Domestic rates

  • “Six Line” – Six numbers = 5:1
  • “Corner” – Four numbers = 8:1
  • “First Corner” – First four (0, 1, 2 and 3) = 8:1
  • “Street” – Three numbers = 11:1
  • “Split” – Two numbers = 17:1
  • “Straight Up” – One number = 35:1

Note:

  • If “Zero” appears, all bets on simple odds (“red”, “black”, “even”, “odd”, “1-18”, “19-36”), dozens and columns lose.
  • “Zero” does not belong to any kind of simple chance. However, bets related to “Zero” are paid in the same way as any other number.

3. Verbal bets

For the convenience of the player and to maintain a high pace of the game, there is an opportunity to make “Oral bets”. Bets on “Series” and “Neighbors” are placed on the “Additional field” (track), which is located above the playing field and is a projection of the roulette wheel circle. Bets on “Series” and “Neighbors” are accepted both with colored tokens and cash tokens. The player’s verbal bets are considered accepted if the dealer and/or inspector verbally duplicate your bet. The player is solely responsible for the correctness of the bets made.

Series

This bet allows the player to cover all numbers included in one of the four sectors of the roulette wheel with the required and minimum number of chips.

There are four classic series (sectors) that are generally accepted in all casinos:

  • “Voizon” (Series 0/2/3) – 17 numbers = 9 tokens
  • “Zero-Spiel” (0-Spiel) – 7 numbers, part of “Voison” = 4 tokens
  • “Tier” (Series 5/8) – 12 numbers = 6 tokens
  • “Orphelins” – 8 numbers = 5 tokens

Neighbors of numbers

A sector of five consecutive numbers on a roulette wheel. The player places a bet on one of the numbers on an additional field (track). Colored chips and/or cash chips in multiples of five are accepted. The bet covers the number on which the chips are placed and two numbers to the right and two to the left. If one of these five numbers comes up, the dealer places 1/5 of the bet on the number that comes up on the playing field and pays it 35:1. The remaining part of the bet is lost.

For more information about “Oral Bets”, please contact the casino staff.
