The European roulette table layout and betting
The object of the European roulette is also to guess on which number the ball is going to land. Players are allowed to bet on:
- a single number;
- combination of numbers;
- red or black colour; odd or even number.
Like in the American roulette, the table layout has short lines of three numbers called rows and long lines of 12 numbers called columns. The bets are two types – inside and outside bets. The bets made on the numbered space and the lines between the numbers are called inside bets. The bets made on the boxes below and the centre of the board are called outside bets. The inside bets are as follows:
- straight up bet – the chip is placed directly on a single number. You can place it even on zero;
- split bet – the chip is placed on the line between two numbers. If the ball lands on any of them, you win;
- street bet – the chip is placed on the line separating the inside and outside betting area at the end of a row. This bet covers an entire row. If the ball lands on any of these three numbers, you win;
- corner bet – the chip is placed at the intersection of the lines between four numbers. If the ball lands on any of these four numbers, you win;
- five number bet - this bet can include only numbers zero, double zero, one. Two and three;
- line bet – the chip is placed at the end of the line between two rows and covers six numbers. If the ball lands on any of these six numbers, you win.
