Learning roulette
General information about the roulette game
First of all, you should know that there are more roulette variants: French roulette or American roulette. In brief, it is a casino game where the winning player is designated by an ivory ball which lands on one of the thirty-seven numbers on the wheel, which is divided into numbered squares. This is the definition of the French roulette game.
If you want to make a comparison with another game, then think about the game of ball. The points of resemblance between the two games start with the fixed wheel.
In order to be able to assess all the issues of the game of roulette, you have to understand the meaning and importance of this game. Therefore, it is useful to learn more about the history of the game of roulette. This game is said to have appeared in Italy in the seventeenth century. Roulette then reached the French territory in the early eighteenth century and then became a necessity in Monaco, more specifically in Monte Carlo, being designated the "queen" of European casinos. If you are keen on mathematics, you have probably heard about the famous Blaise Pascal, who is actually the distinguished inventor of the roulette wheel. There is obviously a link between mathematics and the roulette game in that roulette combines the randomness of any game of chance and a scholarly methodology that allows players to focus on practical tips and a roulette strategy in order to win. Blaise Pascal created the wheel in his attempt to achieve a perpetual motion mechanically.
It was not an instrument of play initially but it was going to become very soon thanks to the brothers Louis and Francois Blanc, who changed the functionality of the wheel and thus made this game popular among gamblers and casinos. How did this change take place? The White brothers added 0 to the numbers on the roulette wheel, which had a significant impact because there were 37 numbers now, which increased the chances of winning (for players and gamblers). But it was not until the nineteenth century that the roulette reached the American territory and the double 0 was introduced.
French roulette uses 37 numbers. The other roulette games, especially American "roulette", differ from French roulette only from certain points of view. For instance, the number of players accepted at the roulette table is smaller. As for American roulette, the difference lies in the numbers printed on the wheel, there being an additional "double zero".
The various parts of the wheel
First of all, there is the rotating cylinder, which is called a "wheel". Inside this cylinder, there is a circular plate which rotates around its axis. This plate is encrusted in a sort of wooden bowl. There are slots numbered from 0 to 36 on the wheel and they are successively colored red and black, except for the zero slot, which is green.
The player follows the ball as it jumps around in the cylinder. In fact, the dealer throws the ball and the only way you can win the jackpot is if you believe in your chances of guessing the slot where it lands.
This is a game table which is played with bets. You can bet either on the numbers on the wheel or on the colors.
You will also have chips called "tokens", which equal the debt you have to return to the casino.
There are numerous winning bids in the roulette game and the most coveted one is that on zero because the payout in case of a win is 36 times the bet. More generally, you can focus on a single number and you can earn up to 35 times the original bet.
