Online Roulette is one of the most varied casino games available. To the casual onlooker, the classic French wheel may seem like nothing more than a betting table and a spinning wheel. The beauty of roulette only truly reveals itself once you take that seat and start understanding just how varied and exciting the game can be.

A Brief History of Roulette

Also known as European Roulette, the origins of the game can be traced back to Parisian casinos in the 18th century. Blaise Pascal set the foundation for the eventual spinning wheel in his quest for a perpetual motion machine. A hundred years later, François and Louis Blanc introduced a single zero wheel to compete with gambling houses that primarily offered double zero versions. The single zero format from then on would be considered French Roulette.

Online Roulette Game Types

European & French Roulette

The single zero wheel carries a house edge of just 2.7%. French Roulette adds the La Partage and En Prison rules, which can reduce the effective house edge on even-money bets to as low as 1.35%. This is the connoisseur's choice.

American Roulette

The only real difference between an American wheel and a French wheel is the addition of a double zero pocket. That single extra pocket nearly doubles the house edge to 5.26%. For the authentic Vegas experience it delivers, but mathematically the European wheel is the smarter play.

Live Roulette

Thanks to video streaming technology, elaborate roulette games are recorded and delivered directly to your PC and mobile devices. Our live casino tables feature deluxe multi-camera setups captured in stunning HD. Professional dealers offer outstanding service, and you can converse with the croupier and fellow players.

Automatic Roulette

Live automatic roulette is a fusion of live and digital styles for a fast and fault-free experience. Using air technology, the game virtually plays itself with minimal human interaction. Designed for players who want to maximise their betting opportunities.

High Roller Roulette

Unlike low stakes games, high roller tables afford a much more generous upper betting limit. Bet thousands on a single spin for a thrilling experience. The risks are great, but so are the rewards.

Low Stakes Roulette

Games with lower initial bet limits, perfect for budget gaming. Smaller, more manageable bets across all devices. If you prefer significant thrills, look to the high roller tables instead.

How to Play Roulette

Your objective is to guess which pocket of the roulette wheel a metal ball will fall into. Place a monetary wager on the betting area, where numbers and sections correlate to the wheel. If you guess correctly, you win. The payout is equivalent to where the bet was placed, with riskier bets producing bigger rewards.
