Types of Roulette
Roulette is a diminutive name of the word "wheel" in French. As well as the first model of roulette was created in France in 18th century, the game in its present form was first played in Paris in 1796. It is described in a French novel by Jaques Lablee - La Roulette, ou le Jour about a roulette wheel in the Palais Royal in Paris. But in spite of these facts, the French variant of Roulette less popular than the other two. The well-known and wide spread types of Roulette are American and European variants.
Actually, the only and main difference between them is the quantity of zeros and according to it the percent of house edge.
Since European Roulette is the game with 0 zero and lower house edge it's considered as the most popular among the all types of Roulette at all. Regardless the wheels in American and European roulettes are the same, the sequence of the numbers on them is different. For the European roulette it is the following: 1-20-14-31-9-22-18-29-7-28-12-35-3-26-0-32-15-19-4-21-2-25-17-34-6-27-13-36-11-30-8-23-10-5-24-16-33. The house edge due to one zero is about 2,7 %.
While European Roulette is the most famous and popular, the American one also has its followers. They know that the sequence of the numbers in it differs from the European, because it has both 0 and 00, and that's why the numbers on the wheel are situated in pairs, such as 1-00-27-10-25-29-12-8-19-31-18-6-21-33-16-4-23-35-14-2-0-28-9-26-30-11-7-20-32-17-5-22-34-15-3-24-36-13. But house edge, certainly, becomes higher up to the 5, 3%. For that reason American Roulette is more profitable for casino than for players, but at the same time it has its own advantages. For example, it offers in addition a bet on five numbers. One must admit, that there were forms of Early American roulette wheels, which had numbers from 1 to 28, and also slots, zero, double zero and an American Eagle - the sign of American Liberty.
Whether a French variant exists or it's just an original version of European roulette is a question of ages. But anyway, French Roulette has its peculiar rules and offers and its players, not so many as previous two have, but thanks to them it is played.
At the same time among the online roulette games it is easy to see much more variations of this game. For example, Multiball roulette where you may play with more than one roulette ball, but in this case you have to divide your bets on the number of the balls. So your odds to win increase while your winning is decreasing.
Or a No Zero roulette the principle of which is clear from its name. The Roulette wheel has no zeros on it, that's why your chances to win are raising extremely while the house advantage is annulated.
The Mini-roulette, the other representative of modern online roulette types, is also based on the European roulette rules, but has only 12 slots on its wheel. Of course the payouts in this roulette and in standard one are different.
