There is perhaps no casino game more iconic or visually striking than Roulette.
+
You do not need to read the dealer, calculate odds, or make high-pressure decisions; you simply guess where the ball will land.
+
Looking at the dozens of different betting options printed on the felt often causes beginners to panic and avoid the table entirely.
+
It offers a massive variety of risk levels, allowing you to play safely for hours or risk it all for a massive 35-to-1 payout.
+
In this article, we will break down the rules of Roulette, explaining exactly how the game is played from start to finish.
+The Basics: Inside Bets vs. Outside Bets +
Understanding the difference between an Inside bet and an Outside bet is the key to managing your bankroll.
+
The "Inside" is the massive grid of individual numbers, ranging from 1 to 36, plus the zeroes (0 and sometimes 00).
+
Inside bets are for players chasing adrenaline and the thrill of hitting a sudden, massive multiplier on their wager.
+
These are the famous, low-risk options: betting on Red or Black, Odd or Even, or High (19-36) or Low (1-18).
+
Consequently, the payout is much smaller; winning an Outside bet pays exactly 1 to 1 (even money).
+What Happens During a Spin +
When you sit down, you hand your cash to the dealer, and they give you a stack of chips in a specific color unique to you.
+
This color-coding ensures that if multiple players bet on the exact same number, the dealer knows exactly whose chips are whose.
+
This is the critical moment; if you touch your chips after this announcement, your bet will be disqualified.
+
All losing chips are instantly swept off the table into the dealer's bank.
+
Once the marker is lifted, you collect your winnings, the dealer announces the next round, and the cycle repeats.
+Avoiding the Double Zero Trap +
Whether you play your birthday numbers, follow a complex pattern, or use the Martingale system, the casino maintains its mathematical advantage.

An American wheel contains both a single zero (0) and a double zero (00), giving the casino a massive 5.26% house edge.
+
Playing on a European wheel gives your bankroll a massive mathematical boost, allowing you to play longer and win more frequently.
+
Casinos try to hide the European wheels in high-limit areas because they know they are less profitable for the house, but they are worth finding.
+
French Roulette uses the single-zero wheel but includes the "La Partage" rule, which refunds half your even-money bet if the ball hits zero.
