...gamblingman - how to play roulette
Gambling Man says;
There are two types of roulette wheels: the
American double-zero wheel and the European single-zero wheel.
The casino has an edge of 5.26 percent on the double zero
roulette wheel and an edge of 2.70 on the single-zero roulette
wheel.
In the game of roulette, the players will be
given a certain amount of time to place as few or as many
bets as they desire. The dealer will then spin the ball. At
a certain moment the dealer will announce: "No more bets"
at which time no more bets may be placed. As the ball finishes
its spin and descends into the pockets, the dealer will announce
the winning number and its color. He will put a special marker
on the winning number. The dealer will collect all the losing
bets and then pay off all the winning bets. The dealer will
then remove the marker and the procedure begins all over again.
The Bets of Roulette:
The Straight Up Bet
You bet one or more numbers by placing your wager directly
on the number or numbers you wish to wager. Winning numbers
are paid off at 35 to one.
Split Bet
Your wager is placed on a line between two numbers. If either
number comes up, you are paid at 17 to one. A split can also
be made between 0 and 00 on the American roulette wheel by
placing a wager between them

the layout. The bet pays off at six to one. The casino has
a higher edge on this bet of approximately eight percent.
