on French Roulette, read on below.
The French roulette wheel has 36 numbers, and only the single zero, unlike
the American roulette wheel which also has the numbers 1 to 36 but with
two zeros (0 and 00). That aside, French roulette is very similar to American
roulette. The numbers on the roulette wheel alternate pairs of odd numbers
with pairs of even numbers. The numbers also alternate between black and
red. Both the 0 and 00 slots are green in color. A dealer, or croupier
spins the wheel in one direction and then rolls a small ball in the other
direction. The ball then drops into one of the slots as it begins to slow
down.
The French roulette wheel is found mostly in Europe and South American
casinos and is seldom seen in the U.S.A. Playing French roulette offers
a much more attractive house edge (because there is one less 0 slot).
Roulette has in effect failed to achieve the same degree of popularity
in America as its achieved in Europe simply because the house edge is
much higher in the American version. Playing the single zero French roulette
wheels can cut the house edge of roulette in half so it's always your
better option if you have the choice.
