Las Vegas roulette follows standard American roulette rules with a wheel containing 38 pockets: numbers 1-36, plus 0 and 00. The game begins when the dealer spins the wheel and releases the ball in the opposite direction.
Players place bets on the table layout before the spin. Inside bets include straight up (single number), split (two numbers), street (three numbers), corner (four numbers), and line bets (six numbers). Outside bets cover larger groups like red/black, odd/even, dozens, or columns.
The house edge in American roulette is 5.26% due to the double zero. When the ball lands in a numbered pocket, the dealer places a marker on the winning number and pays winning bets according to established payout odds. |
