Roulette Overview
 Roulette is
undoubtedly the most recognized and popular casino table game in
the world. Best of all, casino rules
are fairly simple.
It is a game played at a table with a roulette wheel containing
numbered slots. European roulette table contain one zero while
American roulette table contain two.
The table is numbered 0 to 36 and the wheel contains the
corresponding numbers. In roulette the zero is always green, odd numbers are red
and the even numbers are black.
Once the players have placed their bets on the roulette table, the
croupier (dealer) releases a small white ball into the already
spinning wheel.

corresponded with the number where the ball stopped will be paid
out respectively by the croupier and the next round begins.
