Each player plays with their own color chips. If you have a player you
likes to put down twenty different bets each time they play, the sessions are
going to move a little slower. Now lets take a look at each of the individual bets you can make. On inside bets, the total of all
of your bets must add up to at least the table minimum. Straight-up bet - this
is the classic roulette bet. Choose any one of the 38 numbers and put your
chips down on that number for the chance to win back at 35 to 1. The outside bets on a roulette board are
simply the bets that reside 'outside' of the main playing area of 38 numbers. This is different than inside bets,
where the total of all of your inside bets must meet the table minimum. There
are the different types of outside bets. Red or Black - you can choose to bet on
the outcome either being a red number, or a black number.
Roulette is the game where you guess where the little marble is going to drop
on the spinning wheel. For most bets it's fairly obvious - you can't miss the
Red diamond for Red bets, and things like Even, 1-18, and 1st 12 are written out
in plain English. Here are the
different bets you can make. you will likely lose money faster the more
bets you make, because you're betting more. Don't reach for your winnings until the dealer
removes the marker, or the dealer will scold you. If you're asked Inside or Outside, always answer "Both",
even if you only intend to bet one or the other. Roulette games have minimum bets, which will be posted on a
placard at the table. For outside bets, any bet you make has to be the table minimum. It's important to
understand that the outcome of the roulette wheel is truly random. Black and Red still have equal chances of hitting. Now let's say
you've been playing Roulette for a few hours, betting on Red every time, and
you've been keeping track of what numbers have hit. There have been 152 spins (coincidentally,
4 x 38), and so we expect that each number should have come up 4 times on
average. 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. if you win, the
casino doesn't pay you 37 to 1, they pay you less - 35 to 1. The
last time we checked, Single 0 Roulette was available at the Stratosphere and
the Monte Carlo on the Vegas Strip. On even money bets when 0 comes up, instead of losing right
away, your bet is "imprisoned" and rides again for the next spin. In effect, this variation has the ability to turn a loss into a tie.
