While
this
online
casino
game
is a
big
game
of
chance,
there
are
a
few
things
you
should
do
when
playing
it
at
your
favorite
online
casinos
or
land
based
casinos
that
may
make
your
experience
the
best
it
can
be.
Betting
smarts
are
vital
when
selecting
this
casino
game.
Some
bets
are
better
than
others
too.
In
this
2
part
online
gambling
informational
article
we
will
take
a
look
at
this
game
in
detail.
See
what
you
think.
This
is a
casino
game
that
has
been
around
a
lot
longer
than
any
of
us.
It
is
almost
as
old
as
the
US
in
fact.
Roulette
has
been
around
for
some
200
years.
This
game
has
gone
through
many
changes
to
get
it
to
where
it
is
today.
Primarily
there
are
two
types
of
wheels
out
there
–
the
American
and
the
European.
The
European
wheel
is
more
advantageous
for
the
gambler,
but
good
luck
finding
one.
Some
European
online
casinos
and
other
online
gambling
sites
provide
them
,
just
be
sure
to
read
the
fine
print
on
the
rules
as
they
may
be
adjusted
somewhat
to
give
the
house
a
better
edge
(that
is
the
European
wheel
rules).
If
you
have
yet
to
play
this
fun
and
exciting
casino
game,
please
check
out
our
tips
section
first,
where
you
will
get
the
complete
low-down
on
game
rules.
These
days,
modern
wheels
come
complete
with
red
and
black
spaces,
the
numbers
1
through
36
and
zeroes.
It
is
said
that
this
game
was
first
played
in
Paris,
France.
So,
for
more
than
two
centuries,
the
math
of
this
casino
game
has
been
well
known.
Excluding
an
uneven
wheel
(poorly
made
or
unbalanced),
the
house
is
going
to
keep
collecting
its
profit.
This
is
somewhere
around
an
average
of
$5.25
for
every
hundred
bucks
you
bet
on a
double
zero
wheel
(American),
unless
gamblers
are
foolish
enough
to
make
the
five
number
wager
on
0,
00,
1, 2
and
3.
On
that
wager,
the
house
keeps
around
$7.90
for
every
hundred
buck
you
wager.
Quite
simply,
you
cannot
change
the
math
here
with
roulette,
and
the
math
always
favors
the
house
as
it
does
in
many
casino
games.
Do
not
be
surprised,
this
is
how
casinos
stay
in
business
and
make
so
much
money.
You
make
money
when
you
are
lucky.
Even
so,
there
are
some
things
we
want
you
to
understand
about
this
casino
game
that
can
help
you
get
into
the
best
position
for
winnings
possible.
First
and
foremost,
look
for
the
single
zero
wheels
(European
as
we
mentioned
above).
Payoffs
are
made
at
odds
that
would
surrender
an
even
game
if
there
were
36
numbers
on
the
roulette
wheel.
On a
double-zero
roulette
wheel
(American),
there
are
really
38
numbers
you
see
(with
the
0
and
00).
So,
using
this
type
of
roulette
wheel,
the
accurate
odds
alongside
any
single
number
turning
up
are
37-1.
So,
when
you
win
a
single
number
wager,
you're
paid
35
to
1.
That
two
unit
difference
is
where
the
house’s
advantage
comes
into
play
you
see.
When
a
roulette
wheel
has
only
one
zero,
the
difference
tapers.
This
way,
there
are
only
37
numbers
and
accurate
odds
alongside
any
one
number
are
then
36
to
1.
There
is
then
only
a
one
unit
difference
between
that
and
the
35
to 1
pay
off
on a
winning
single
number
wager.
The
house
advantage
drops
from
about
5.25%
on
the
double
zero
wheel
to
2.7%
on a
single
zero
wheel.
That
is a
very
big
difference
actually.
It
rolls
out
to
be
an
extra
$2.56
of
every
one
hundred
bucks
you
bet
that
remains
in
your
possession.
