How to play online casino roulette

The popularity of Roulette is equal on both sides of the Atlantic. Players from around the world have always wanted to find a winning strategy for online casino roulette. And, it is for this reason that a number of strategies and systems have been formulated by so-called ‘veterans’, but it should be taken care when you buy these systems. When it comes to roulette, chance has a higher chance of winning, and not strategy.

Roulette has a higher house edge as compared to other kind of betting games. When you want the best outcome, it is recommended to bet on the 1:1 payout. In this game betting is done for red-black, high-low or for even-odd.

Roulette as a betting game is meant entirely to give fun and enjoyment to the player. In comparison to a land based casino, the online version of the game is much faster, and you would never be able to keep a track of time.

When playing for the first time, you should learn about different aspects of roulette. This includes the layout of the table, the bets and the payouts. There are two kinds of bets in this game – outside bets and inside bets. The outside bets are made on red-black, odd-even, high-low, columns and dozens. The inside bets are made on line, straight-up, street, five-number and corner, and the payouts are different for each of the bet.

Generally, the house edge is lower in the case of outside bets. There are three major versions of online casino roulette – the American, European and French version.

There is not much different to be found between all the three versions. However, the casino edge is highest in the American version of the game. The bets can be made by placing the chips on the numbers, or on the lines or on the boxes provided on the table.

The chips used in a land-based casino are identified by their colors, while those used in online casinos are marked with denominations. The lowest valued chips are marked as . When all the players have made their bets with the chips, the dealer sets the ball spinning round the slotted wheel. And, when the ball stops in a specific slot, the dealer declares the winners and losers.

There are 38 slots in an American wheel, while 37 in a European wheel. The American wheel has a double zero that is not present in the European version. Due to this reason the house edge of the American wheel is higher.

The rule of “en prison” is applied only in the European version. As per this online casino roulette, when the ball stops on the zero, a half is returned to the players who bet on High-Low, Red-Black or Odd-Even. And, the player can also choose to imprison the bet to be played in the next spin.
