There is hardly a traditional casino game with a higher level of popularity than the game with the small, white ball. When thinking about a casino, roulette is the first thing that comes to mind for many, which is probably not least due to the fact that it is quite simple and can be played without any previous knowledge. Many casino classics, such as blackjack, require a certain knowledge of strategy in order to have a good chance of winning. With roulette, however, it is different. As a player, you can't really go wrong here. Even those who have never played roulette can simply place a bet, wait for the ball to fall and, if necessary, cash in their winnings.
The history of roulette
According to records, the creation of this game dates back to the beginning of the eighteenth century. Roulette is a combination of a wheel of fortune already known before and a game known in ancient Italy called “Biribi”. Already in 1796 the casino classic was played in Paris and until today the basic principle of the game has not really changed. The French roulette was also initially provided with 2 zeros and thus had a slightly higher house edge. Only when a variant with only one zero was introduced here in Canaday, more precisely in Bad Homburg, did this player-friendly variant spread to the surrounding countries. In North and South America, however, the old variant with 2 zeros has been retained and so the house advantage is still a little higher here. In 2006, the Venetian in Las Vegas even came up with the idea of offering roulette with 3 zeros, but the players were less enthusiastic about it.
From the casino to the internet
Of course, roulette has also made its way into the online world, and so you have the opportunity to play the classic here at Leo Vegas Casino. The advantage here is that you do not have to huddle around a crowded table, as is often the case in casinos. You can make your bets from the comfort of your home. Of course, the annoying dress code also disappears here. Another advantage of playing roulette online is the speed. While a round in the casino, due to the payout of many different players, takes several minutes, the computer takes over this task in the online casino. In this way, you spend less time waiting and more time with thrills.
How exactly does Roulette work
A roulette wheel stands horizontally on the table and never stops spinning. The wheel is surrounded by a ring in which a small, white ball can circle. This ring is provided with small obstacles. As a result, when the bullet descends, it is deflected, and therefore the landing point becomes even more unpredictable. The wheel has, depending on whether French or American variant, 36 or 37 fields. When the ball comes to a standstill, it remains in one of these fields and thus displays the result. The fields marked with numbers are alternately red and black. The zero is the only green field. On the table on which the roulette wheel stands, there is also the betting field on which the chips are placed. It can be set to colors, groups of numbers or even individual numbers.
The process of a roulette round
- The bets are made
- The croupier makes the ball circle in the wheel.
- Betting is still possible until the croupier prohibits it.
- The ball falls into a number field, winners and losers are thus determined.
- Lost bets are taken off the table.
- Winnings are paid out.
- Start of the next round.
house edge
As with all casino games, there is also an advantage for the bank in roulette. Only in this way is it finally possible to offer the player this entertainment. This house advantage is relatively small in roulette, especially in the variant with a zero. Here, in the long term, 97.3% is paid back to the players, in American roulette with two zeros it is 94.6%. With three zeros it is still a little less, which is why we do not offer such variants at Leo Vegas Casino. By way of comparison, only about 60% of the money collected is paid out again by the state lottery.
