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) 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. There aren't many specific things that can be

the number layout, or along the border of it. Street bet - this is a bet not unlike a split.
