French Roulette from NetEnt

In this article we would like to tell you about the most popular game in all casinos in the world, that is, about roulette online . Some players believe that a casino without a roulette wheel is not a casino. Most often, it is the most besieged and most exciting game in the entire casino. There is no person who is not excited by the moment when the ball moves through the numbers to stop after a while on the winning one. You need to know that there are two main types of this game: French roulette and American roulette . We will only deal with the French version and you will know its rules. In the beginning, we can tell you that the beginning of this game dates back to the XVII century, but its creator is not known and there are many versions on this topic. The official version is that its creator was physicist Pascal.

French roulette can be intimidating, especially for inexperienced players. It has a large wheel and many numbers, so players expect very complicated rules. Therefore, more often they reach for seemingly simpler games, i.e. blackjack or Baccarat. However, roulette is not as scary as it is painted. Despite the many numbers, the rules of French roulette are not that complicated. Just read our short guide carefully and you will learn about all the concepts, rules and in general everything you need to know about French roulette.

Features of French roulette

The main element of roulette is its table or wheel, depending on the version. It is on the table are all the numbers, which then bet. How are they arranged? The numbers also form a circle, which is located on the edge of the circle. Its center is usually empty. The numbers are arranged right next to each other, and their position seems random, but in every casino it looks exactly the same. In the American version, the numbers are arranged in pairs, but remember that in the French version you will not meet the numbers in turn, i.e. 1-2-3-4....., in roulette wheel looks like this: 1 – 20 – 14 – 31 – 9 – 22 – 18 – 29 – 7 – 28 – 12 – 35 – 3 – 26 – 0 – 32 – 15 – 19 – 4 – 21 – 2 – 25 – 17 – 34 – 6 – 27 – 13 – 36 – 11 – 30 – 8 – 23 – 10 – 5 – 24 – 16 – 33. There are 37 numbers, and each field has a variable color, red and black.

It is worth noting that unlike the American version, which has two zeros, French roulette has only one zero. Does it matter to the player? Of course I do. Only one zero means that the advantage of the casino over the player is not very large (it is only 2.7%). The potential player has a higher chance of winning (you can easily imagine, just one tile with zero means less chance that zero will fall out). The wheel is operated by the dealer and he accepts all bets.

Rules of French roulette

In French Roulette, we will meet with several important items, and these are: a roulette wheel, a table with a board, a wheel and chips. The game starts with betting results. Then you should take your chips (all or part of it, it all depends on you) and put them on the field of your choice. The dealer then announces that the betting is over. At this point, the dealer starts to spin the wheel, and the dealer drops a special ball on the table. Where it stops means that this number is the winner.

How can you bet? We will present this in the list below. You can bet on:

• the number black or red
• even or odd number
• high (19 up) or low (1 to 18)
• for a whole column or a dozen
• classic for 1 number
• for 2 numbers
• for 4 numbers
• for 6 numbers

Not every bet has the same probability of winning. The first 3 bets make the probability of winning 48.65. It is so big because we bet on more numbers. If you bet on 6 numbers, the probability of winning is 16.22. At 4 numbers, it drops to 10.81. The probability for 3 numbers is 8.11 and 2 numbers is 5.41. If you bet on one number, the probability of winning is 2.70. Dozens or columns increase the probability to 32.43.
