A session ends when the ball lands where it may, and the dealers clear the board of losing bets (and pay winning ones of course) If you haven't read up on the rest of the site I'll quickly go over the different colors of chips and how they relate to the rest of the roulette rules. When the new session starts you can put your chips down where you want to bet, and you don't really have to be in a hurry. There aren't many specific things that can be considered roulette rules at the table, but here's one you shouldn't forget. At this point, as you intuition may have mentioned to you, you can't place any more bets. Just sit back and let the ball fall where it may. On inside bets, the total of all of your bets must add up to at least the table minimum. The outside bets on a roulette board are simply the bets that reside 'outside' of the main playing area of 38 numbers. Red or Black - you can choose to bet on the outcome either being a red number, or a black number.

You should always calculate your expected loss and how long you can play on a given bankroll before playing any game, but with roulette it's especially important. now, let's see how to play roulette. We've added blue circled letters to the diagram to point out how to make the not-so-obvious bets (the sets of 2-6 numbers) You don't have to make just one kind of bet for each spin, you can make several, and you win if the ball lands on any of your numbers. When the ball is getting ready to drop, the dealer will wave his hand over the table, which means "No more bets". Then he'll scoop up all the losing bets towards the dealer area. That way, you're not locked in and you always have the ability to change your mind. Roulette chips can in fact be any denomination - $1, $5, $25, etc. Minimum bets work differently for inside and outside bets. Remember that you can bet inside or outside if you like; there's no requirement to bet both on a given spin. In this way, Roulette is more like slots - one single bet can win a lot. It's important to understand that the outcome of the roulette wheel is truly random. If Black has come up for the last 10 spins in a row, the next spin is not more likely to be Red. You can certainly switch to another number if you want, but that won't improve or worsen your chances. The chances of #27 coming up on a given spin are the same, whether it just come up on the last spin or not - 1 in 38. Your odds of winning a one-number bet are 37 to 1 (37 ways to lose, 1 way to win) In effect, this variation has the ability to turn a loss into a tie.
