Roulette wheel
Roulette is one of the more popular casino games, because it is both easy
to learn and offers a 8️⃣ variety of ways to have action on the board. There is a lot that
goes into this game before the 8️⃣ exciting spin of the wheel.
We have put together this
guide to help both new and experienced roulette players. We will 8️⃣ cover the basics of
how to play the game and offer tips to help you get ready to play at 8️⃣ WynnBET’s online
casino.
Roulette Basics
It is easy to spot the roulette table at a casino, and the
concept is the same 8️⃣ online. There is a wheel that features slots for numbers 1 through
36, in which the numbers are either red 8️⃣ or black. There are one or two slots for
zeroes, as well, which are green.
Players can place bets until the 8️⃣ dealer closes the
betting session. Once all bets are placed, the dealer spins the wheel and throws in a
small, 8️⃣ marble-sized ball into it that spins in the opposite direction. The ball will
fall into one of the marked slots, 8️⃣ determining which bets receive a payout.
You will
receive a payout, if you have placed a bet that corresponds to the 8️⃣ winning slot.

Types of Bets
Roulette bets
table view
Between betting on the 8️⃣ outside and inside of the board, there are several
different types of bets while playing roulette. Each bet has its 8️⃣ own probability of
hitting and different odds to reflect those percentages. Let’s break it down.
Outside
Bets
An outside bet features all 8️⃣ the options on the outer edge of the betting board.
Half of the possible outcomes in a game of roulette 8️⃣ are covered by outside bets.
Because you have a higher chance of winning such bets, your payout isn’t as big 8️⃣ as
other wager options.
Examples of outside bets include:
Red or Black — This bet pays out
even odds (1:1) if the 8️⃣ ball lands on the roulette color you choose.
Odd or Even —
Another bet that pays out at even odds (1:1) 8️⃣ if you correctly call the ball landing on
an odd or even number.
Low or High — You are betting on 8️⃣ whether the winning number will
fall within 1-18 (low) or 19-36 (high). Both are even money bets.
Column — This is 8️⃣ a
bet on the outcome being a number within one of the three columns of 12 numbers than
span the 8️⃣ longest side of the roulette table. The first column covers 1, 4, 7, 10, 13,
16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 8️⃣ 31, 34. The second column features 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26,
29, 32, 35. The third 8️⃣ column includes 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36. You
receive a 2:1 payout (double 8️⃣ your bet) by choosing the correct column.
Dozens — Another
bet that covers a dozen numbers, these three selections are actually 8️⃣ in numerical
order. That means 1st 12 is numbers 1-12, 2nd 12 includes 13-24, and 3rd 12 covers
25-36. Each 8️⃣ dozen pays 2:1, or double your bet.

Roulette Odds Breakdown for Inside bets
Inside bets refer 8️⃣ to specific numbers and
sets of numbers on the inside of the roulette betting table. They have a lower chance
8️⃣ of winning than outside bets, but they do have a larger payout.
Examples of inside bets
include:
Straight Up — This is 8️⃣ bet on any number on the board. You win if the ball
lands on your number, but lose if the 8️⃣ ball lands on any other number. Each straight bet
pays out 35:1.
Split — Instead of betting on one number, you 8️⃣ are placing a bet on the
line that separates the two numbers. If the ball lands on either number, you 8️⃣ win. This
pays out 17:1.
Corner — Similar to a split bet, though you get four numbers instead of
two. These 8️⃣ numbers have to touch (to form a square), but it pays out 8:1 if the ball
lands on a number 8️⃣ that falls within your quartet.
Street — You are betting on a row of
three numbers, such as 1,2,3 or 4,5,6 8️⃣ on the inside of the board. The payout for the
ball landing within your trio is 11:1.
Double Street or Line 8️⃣ — Similar to street bets,
but you are selecting two rows of three numbers instead of one. Examples include 1-6
8️⃣ and 4-9, in which the payoff is 5:1.
Basket — When a player chooses to place a bet
covering the zero, 8️⃣ double zero, and the top line of numbers, which are 1, 2 and 3. This
five-number bet has a 6:1 8️⃣ payout.

Online Roulette vs. Live Roulette
You
can play this 8️⃣ popular game in person or online using your WynnBET casino app. It
honestly just comes down to what you prefer 8️⃣ as a casino player, because there are
advantages and disadvantages to both options.
Live Roulette
If you are looking for more
of 8️⃣ a social setting, then this is the route to take. You can get dressed up and enjoy
the company of 8️⃣ other roulette players at the table. There is also something to be said
about physically placing your bets, and having 8️⃣ those chips in your hand at all
times.
The obvious downside is that tables can get pretty crowded, particularly if you
8️⃣ go to a casino on a weekend. This can be overwhelming to new players, but crowded
tables can make it 8️⃣ difficult to reach across the table to place bets.
Online
Roulette
It can be extremely convenient to play roulette online, as you 8️⃣ can do so
without leaving the comfort of your home. You never have an issue of finding a spot at
8️⃣ the table, and you don’t have to worry about reaching over anyone else to place your
bets.
You can play at 8️⃣ your own pace without feeling rushed by other players or by the
dealer while playing online. You don’t have to 8️⃣ deal with the smoky air that fills most
casino rooms, and can play from your couch instead.
Players can miss out 8️⃣ on the social
aspect of playing at a casino, but online roulette has advantages in almost every other
aspect.

5 Roulette Tips To Consider Before Playing
Roulette wheel
1. Inside 8️⃣ Bets are
More Volatile
For this reason, the payoff is greater. Statistically, you will win more
often by placing outside bets.
2. 8️⃣ Don’t Bet Against Yourself
That means if you are
going to bet on 12 for an inside bet, it doesn’t make 8️⃣ sense to bet on the ball landing
on an odd number. Switch the outside bet to an even number to 8️⃣ increase your potential
payout.
3. Practice Bankroll Management at All Times
Pay attention to minimum bets and
understanding how much action you 8️⃣ have on a given roll. You shouldn’t have your entire
bankroll on one spin, especially if you are hoping to 8️⃣ play for a longer period.
Consider giving yourself a betting limit for a given day as well.
4. Pay Attention to
8️⃣ Previous Rolls
This information is always available when playing roulette. You can see
what numbers are hot, such as outside options 8️⃣ like odd/even or red/black. Don’t let
that be the only factor for placing bets, but having that information at your 8️⃣ disposal
can’t hurt.
5. Have Fun!
There is no perfect method to playing roulette. You can try to
make as many decisions 8️⃣ based on statistics or you can simply trust your gut. The
important thing is to make sure you have fun 8️⃣ while playing this popular game.
