Roulette is one of the games most people would like to play and the game most often called to mind
when you think of casinos.
The roulette chips have no monetary values printed on
them. Usually there are between six and eight sets of
different colored chips, (300 chips to a set). Each player
has their own color and the value of each is the amount bought divided
by the number of chips. A token is placed on top of the dealer's
stack corresponding to the color of chips to indicate the value.
Bets are placed on numbers, colors, odds or evens.
United States Rules
U.S. roulette wheels have 38 numbered slots (1 to 36,
zero and double zero). Bets are placed on individual numbers and
or combinations of numbers. After bets are placed the dealer spins
the wheel. The ball goes round and comes to rest in one
of the numbered slots. An imprison rule may be applied to even money
bets, the bet remains imprisoned until the ball fails to land in zero.
European Rules
European roulette also has the "en prison" rule.
Even money bets are imprisoned. If the ball lands in zero the player
either gets half the bet back or it becomes imprisoned. If an imprisoned
bet wins on the next spin it is released, unless the ball lands in zero
again in which case the bet is lost. A double imprisonment
rule applies in some European countries also (Two zeros = double imprisoned
and two winning bets in a row are required for the bets release, but any
zeros will lose the bet.)
