European Roulette Wheel

European Roulette consists of a wheel with 37 stops and a ball that can land with equal chance on any of the 37 stops. The stops are numbered in non-sequential order 0 and then 1-36. The stops 1-36 are colored either black or red and the "0" stop is colored green. You can bet on where the ball will land on the wheel by placing chips on the Roulette table. Winnings are paid on a multiplier of the bet.

European Roulette Bets and Payouts

There are many types of bets in European Roulette. By placing the chips differently or choosing a neighbor or special bet, you can bet on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 17 or 18 numbers.

The following table is a list of the bet types, a description of each bet and the corresponding payouts for a winning bet.
