is one of the
most recognized casino games and is played enthusiastically worldwide.

Roulette Wheel Glossary betting facts:
Roulette single-zero tables offers a low casino edge of 2.63%. Double zero Roulette has a 5.26% house or casino advantage.
European Roulette: Single zero is positioned between black 26 and red 32.
Another plus of the European game is en prison rule on even-money bets. When zero comes up, your bet remains or is 'captured' for the next spin.
En-prison or surrender rules on even money bets reduces the casino edge further to 1.35%.
The 0, 00, 1, 2, and 3: five-number bet has a large 7.89% casino advantage. Avoid this bet.

Roulette Strategy #3: Start with 40 chips: $1 denomination is the least expensive way to go. With most tables requiring $5 minimum inside bets, you qualify by placing 5 inside straight up bets.
