Roulette

One of the most popular online casino games that is enjoyed at the online casino NZ, is the game of Roulette.

Roulette means little wheel in French, originating from France, it is played on a rotating wheel with a ball that is spinning in the opposite direction along the track. The object of the game is to bet on the winning pocket where the ball will eventually land. The pockets of the wheel alternate between red and black, with the number zero being green.

The Rules of Roulette

Players of Roulette have a number of different betting options. Bets can be either inside bets that are placed by selecting either the exact pocket out of the potential 37 or 38 pockets that are in the wheel, depending on the version of Roulette that is being played. An inside bet can also be placed on a small number of pockets based on their proximity to each other.

An outside bet is a larger bet that selects a larger group of pockets such as the colour of the pocket or odd and even numbers.

The more numbers the player will bet on, the higher chance he will have of winning the bet, on the other hand, the payout will be lower than the player who has made a bet on a smaller amount of numbers.

Placing a Bet

The Roulette table has a betting grid in which the numbers are laid out in three vertical and twelve horizontal columns. The player at the online casino new Zealand, makes a bet by clicking the mouse over the appropriate area of the table.

Players can place more than one type of bet in the same game, for instance, a player can place both inside and outside bets in the same game.

Roulette Strategy and Tips

Some online casino games are a combination of both luck and strategy, Roulette however, is a game of chance. There are some tips however that can make players more successful at winning. The American wheel as opposed to the European wheel, contains an extra pocket. This means that the likelihood of winning is that much smaller. A first tip would therefore be to always choose a European Roulette wheel to play on.

Another strategy that many Roulette players advocate is to make a number of different bets at each Roulette game. This ensures that at each game of Roulette you have the opportunity of making some big wins as well as some consistent smaller wins.
