Roulette Betting Types

When thinking of casinos, it’s hard not to associate casinos with the little spinning wheel. A person who is not very familiar with casino gambling may even think that the game “Wheel of Fortune” is incorporated in casinos.

That wheel where lots of people hang around is not the “Wheel of Fortune” that wheel is actually a roulette wheel. Roulette gambling is for many the most fun and simplest game to play.

The object of the game to win is pretty simple. You would need to put your chips in the designated numbers on the roulette table. Then the dealer would spin the wheel and drop a small ball. When the ball stops at a number at the wheel the same as your number in the table you win.

When gambling on roulette, the strategies involved is where you put your chips. This is because the payoff odds are greater on different spots. However, the greater the payoff odds the harder the chance it is to win.

Here are the different bets you can make when gambling your money at roulette tables.

• A single bet is when you put your chips at one number at the table. The payoff odd of this kind of bet is 35:1.
• A split bet is putting your chips on two numbers at the table. The payoff odds are 17:1.
• Trio bet puts your chips on three numbers and the payoff odds are 11:1.
• A five number bet is a bet that covers 0, 00, 1, 2, and 3. The payoff odds for a five number bet is 6:1.
• A six number bet is when the player puts chips on 6 numbers at the same time. The payoff odds are 5:1.
• A roulette table is divided into three columns. A column bet is a gamble the player makes that the ball will land in a number under the column he or she has chosen. The payoff odds are 2:1.
• A dozen bet is a gamble made by the player that the ball will land on 1 to 12, 13 to 24 or 25 to 36. The payoff odds are 2:1.
• You can also either bet on red or black only. However the payoff odds are only 1:1.
• Another bet where the payoff odds are 1:1 only is the High or Low. When you bet on high you bet on numbers 19-36. Low bets on the other hand are numbers from 1-18.
• The final type of bet is odd or even bet. This needs no explanation right? The payoff odds are also 1:1.

That is how gambling is done at roulette tables. Gambling strategies of players who play roulette involve them learning the chances of the ball landing in the number. However, there is still a degree of luck involved when gambling on roulette tables.
