Roulette is a casino game that involves a ball and a rotating wheel. Players place their chips on the table and wait for the dealer to throw the ball into one of the pockets. If the number is yours, you win.

If you bet on a single number, you’ll receive up to 35 times your bet if you win. But outside bets have a lower payout.

Game of chance

A game of chance is a game that is based on luck, not skill. It can include games like playing cards, roulette wheels, or picking a numbered ball. These games are often considered to be gambling, if they involve wagering money or something of monetary value. Games of chance may also include activities that are more skilled than chance, but still rely on randomness to be successful.

The rules of a game of chance must be clearly displayed at the point of sale. Ticket holders must be informed of any conditions attached to the prize and the authorised purpose(s) for which the net proceeds will be applied or distributed. The date and location of the determination of results must be publicly notified. A society must forward an independently audited Audit and Prize Statement to the Secretary within three months of the result being determined.

Bets

There are many different types of bets in roulette, and their payouts can vary widely. These include voisins du zero (neighbors of the zero), jeu zero (zero game, for the seven numbers closest to it), and le tiers du cylindre (the thirds of the wheel). Other bets such as d’un seul numéro or carré are also known as outside bets. These bets cover a group of numbers and can pay up to 17 times the initial bet if you win. However, the odds of winning these bets are much lower than those for inside bets. Hence, they are more risky.
