American Roulette Objective

In American Roulette, the player tries to predict which number slot on the Roulette wheel that the ball will land on.

American Roulette Rules

The roulette wheel is marked with numbers 1 through 36, with an additional "0" and "00". The numbers are alternately coloured red and black, and the "0" and "00" are green.

The roulette layout is divided into different sections - individual numbers and group bets. Bets made on individual or adjacent numbers or small groups of numbers are referred to as 'inside bets' whilst the bets covering groups of 12 or 18 numbers (e.g. red, odd, etc.) are known as 'outside bets'.

American Roulette Types of Bets

American Roulette Inside Bets

1) Straight Up A bet on any single number including "0" and "00", placed directly on the number
2) Split Bet A bet on two adjacent numbers, placed on the line between the 2 numbers , including 0 and 00.
3) Street Bet A bet on all three numbers in a row, placed on the line at the end of the row. Also can be placed on 0, 1, and 2. As well as, 0, 00, and 2. Or 00, 2, and 3.
