ROULETTE RULES
The numbers on the roulette wheel consist of two zeros green in color placed at opposite ends of the roulette wheel, and alternating pairs of odd and even numbers alternate between black and red. The object of roulette is to determine which number or color the ball will ultimately land on. Players bet on roulette before and during the spin of the roulette wheel (until the croupier stops all betting with the call 'Rien ne va plus'), on the landing place of the ball after the roulette wheel has stopped spinning.
The roulette table layout is arranged so that the 36 numbers are arranged in 3 columns of 12 numbers each. The numbers are in sequence, and can be either red or black, depending on the number. There are two types of roulette bets: inside bets and outside bets. There are 6 inside roulette bets: straight bet, split bet, street bet, corner bet, five number bet, and a line bet. There are 3 basic outside roulette bets: even-money, column, and dozen bets. You can place as many different types of bets as you want. There are no limits to the number of wagers placed on each roulette spin, as long as the total dollar amount does not exceed $100.
