Do You Know the Best and Worst Roulette Bets? The outcome of
every spin of the roulette wheel is independent of any other and
is not influenced by prior spins. Even if you have ten black
numbers after ten spins, the chance of getting red in the next
spin is the same as to get black. As roulette is a game of pure
chance, you need to know the odds of the bets and place the ones
with the best chance of success American & European Roulette The
odds in Roulette are very easy to calculate. The wheel is
divided into either 37 or 38 slots, depending on whether you are
playing the European version (single zero), or the American
version which has an extra space in the double zero slot. The
zero space(s) represent the house edge. The house advantage in
single zero Roulette is 2.7% and is 5.26% for the double zero
game How to Calculate Roulette Odds European Single Zero Game
American Double Zero Game (35 - 36)/37 x 100 = -2.70% (35 -
37)/38 x 100 = -5.26% Bets to Avoid The bets to avoid in this
game are probably all single number bets and the five number bet
(only found on double zero wheels) because these types of bets
have the largest disparity between true odds and actual payouts.
Bets to Place If you plan to play Roulette, stick with the bets
whose odds almost mirror their payouts. These "even money" bets
include betting on Even, Odd, Low (numbers 1 through 18), High
(numbers 19 through 36), Red, or Black. All of these wagers pay
out at 1 to 1. Roulette Odds: Best Bet on the Table Look for a
European single-zero wheel that offers the rule 'en prison.' If
you make an even money bet and the ball lands on zero, the
croupier doesn't rake in your wager. Instead, your bet is
'imprisoned' or held hostage, and you are forced to keep it on
the table until the next spin. If your bet wins, you can remove
it from the table. This bet cuts the house edge on even money
bets in half, down to just 1.35%.
