Roulette gambling – in movies, television, and literary works, it is often portrayed as a fascinating and exciting game, regardless of how the actors play it out in the plot. While achieving great success in movies might seem like a fantasy for James Bond and other fictional masters, it is actually best to understand the rules of roulette gambling in order to minimize risks and maximize your chances of winning big prizes. But it all depends on the choices of numbers to bet on and how you want to play.
In the live video games provided by Gameone Entertainment City, there are 38 numbers – from 1 to 36, one zero, and one double zero. Apart from the last two, half of the numbers are red, and the other half are black, half are even, and the other half are odd. Obviously, neither even nor odd. These bets will win you a bonus of 35:1, but there’s always room for more.
Now that we have the basic framework and layout of winning in roulette, let’s enumerate some of the best tactics you need to choose to help you overcome obstacles and make a big profit in betting!
The table design in a roulette game divides all numbers, except 0 (and the American 00), into three columns, each with 12 numbers. The first row of the table includes numbers 1, 2, and 3; the second row includes numbers 4, 5, and 6; and so on until the last row numbered 34, 35, 36. The numbers 0 (and 00 in the American version) are in the topmost row. The rest of the table includes many different types of markings, all of which represent various betting options.
The gameplay begins once all players have placed their bets. The dealer will start increasing the speed of the wheel to make it spin during the game. Then the dealer will toss a small ball, usually made of ivory, in the opposite direction of the wheel’s rotation. As the ball and wheel rotate in opposite directions, the ball’s speed naturally decreases and it lands in one of the tracks (numbers). The winning number is the track where the ball settles after the dealer tosses it.
Since roulette gambling can be played by multiple people simultaneously, and players can bet on the same number, special chips must be used when playing. Each player has their own colored chips, allowing the dealer to distinguish between different players’ bets. Before leaving the table, a player can exchange these chips for regular casino chips.
Sic Bo is a classic dice game where three dice are rolled to determine the outcome. The gameplay involves the dealer shaking three dice in a covered container and then revealing them after all bets are placed. Since most players bet on the total sum of the dice points, it is also known as “big and small.” Apart from guessing big or small, players can also bet on individual scores, the total sum of points, combinations of two numbers, and triples. Each comes with different odds. Due to the significant advantage the house holds in other types of bets, only big and small or single-point bets are worth playing. As for the simplified Sic Bo game, there are also some betting tactics to be mastered. Familiarize yourself with the following five strategies before the game.
Various betting methods and odds are as follows:
Note – Single Bet: Purchase 1 number; if you win, you will receive a prize from 1 to 35. Split Bet – Buy two numbers; if either one wins, you can win a prize of 1 to 17. Street Bet – Buy a row with 3 numbers; if any number wins, you can win a prize from 1 to 11. Note – Purchase 4 numbers; if any one of them wins, you can win a prize from 1 to 8. Line Bet – Buy 6 numbers adjoining two rows; if any number wins, you can win a prize from 1 to 5. Column Bet – Purchase any 12 numbers in a column; when any one of them wins, you can win a prize at 1 to 2. Dozen Bet – 12 numbers connected through buying and betting; if any one of them wins, you can win a prize at 1 to 2. Red/Black – Purchase the color of the winning number; after winning, you can receive a prize at 1 to 1. Odd/Even – Buy and bet on whether the winning number is odd or even; after winning, you can receive a prize at 1 to 1. Big/Small – Winning number falls between 1 to 18 (small) or 19 to 36 (big); after winning, you can receive a prize at 1 to 1. Please note that if the ball lands on 0, all outside bets become void.
Roulette Concept 1: Understanding Red/Black, Odd/Even, 1-18/19-36
There is no other game in the casino where players can get close to a 50/50 payout in a single bet. Betting on red/black, even/odd, or 1-18/19-36 gives you almost a half chance of winning, providing you a good opportunity for victory. Of course, this means lower payouts (1:1, betting $100 wins $100), but it is one of the safest and best ways to go with these numbers.
If you are willing to take more risks with each bet, these odds could have amazing returns. Take the example of Ashley Revell. He once placed a bet of $136,000. If throwing that amount of money doesn’t impress you or at least make you sweat a little, know that this was Revell’s life savings, and the whole event was televised live. So, if Revell won, he would double his money, causing envy and admiration from viewers. If he lost, he would lose everything and get the pity he deserved.
Roulette Concept 2: Straight-Up Bet (Inside Bet)
If a 1:1 payout is not enough to motivate you to place a chip, you can increase the chips and payout to 2:1 through betting on columns. By using the second-best roulette bet, you can decrease the selection of numbers to less than a third, but betting on a column still covers a significant chunk of the wheel, while doubling your winnings – a $10 bet will win $20.
Columns do not include consecutive numbers – for example, the first column has numbers 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, and 31 – the quantity of red and black numbers between each column differs, which we’ll discuss in more detail later. Remember, 0 and 00 are not included in any of the columns as they are reserved for all the other numbers – they stand alone.
Roulette Concept 3: Black and Third Column/Red and Second Column
The third-best roulette betting strategy method is specifically designed for gamblers who like hedge bets. The gambling version of roulette’s formula is a very interesting one. When thoroughly studied, it may help you score big. The page’s third column has 8 red numbers and 4 black numbers, while the second column is the opposite with 8 black numbers and 4 red numbers.
A smart gambler can take advantage of this layout for some slow and steady gains. If you bet the red third column and bet the black column twice (third column $100, black $200), you give yourself a good chance to balance or make money.
Here’s why: The third column has more red numbers than any other column, providing a large chunk of red to the wheel. At the same time, you are betting black, which gives you half the wheel. The third column pays out at 2:1, while black pays out at 1:1, so your column bet should be half the amount of your black bet to break even. This is because if a red number comes up in the third column, you win double your column bet but lose the same amount on your black bet – this is seen as one bet because you have a nullified win. The same applies when a black number appears: You win on your black bet, but lose on your column bet. However, when a black number from the third column shows up, you can move forward. This betting system minimizes risk while giving you a steady chance to fill your coffers.
The same thing applies to the combination of red and the second column – with red reducing your number to half, and the second column having 8 black numbers. Be patient, and this game can help you reap hefty profits.
Golden League Roulette Concept 4: Straight-Up
If the way the payout occurs is more important to you than minimizing risk, then your best option is to go straight for a single number. This involves betting on a singular number. May the Lady Luck be on your side. This method is high risk, but with a 35:1 payout, that translates to 350 Chinese Yuan with a 10 Chinese Yuan bet – but that’s quite demanding as well. If you have 35,000 Chinese Yuan in funds, you could technically get up to 35,000 Chinese Yuan with 1,000 Chinese Yuan bets until you exit the game. If you win once, you win as much as 35,000 Chinese Yuan. The odds of hitting your chosen number are approximately 2.7% or 1 in 37.
Roulette Concept 5: Split Bet
If you want to go big but the straight-up bet gives you chills, you can still get a lower-risk option by choosing a split bet. This involves placing chips on the felt between two adjoining numbers. It can be in a horizontal or vertical position, with the chips resting on the line between the two numbers.
With 7:1 odds, it is lower than a straight-up bet, but the 18:1 odds make it a better roulette win than a straight-up bet, which is approximately 1 in 18.
