HOW TO PLAY ROULETTE
The Wheel Millionaires Casino Accra offers our guests the European Roulette Wheel game. This wheel has 37 slots numbered 0-36. The house edge is 2.63.
The Layout Roulette layouts have two betting areas. The inside betting area contains the individual numbers on the layout. The outside betting area has boxes for the columns, red/black, odd/even, low/high numbers and dozens.
The numbers on the inside are arranged in 12 rows of three numbers forming three vertical columns.
Buying In You must purchase special roulette chips when you sit down to play. To avoid disputes each player receives a different color chip. These chips are good for that table only and you must cash them in when you get done playing. You will them be given regular casino chips to take to the cage. You cannot cash in the roulette table chips at the cage.
Each roulette table has a minimum and maximum bet. You can’t combine your inside and outside bets to meet the table minimum.
Inside Bets There are several inside bets that you can make. You can bet on a number straight up or on the line between 2 numbers to select a combination of numbers. The payouts are as follows.
Straight Up bet is a wager on a single number. It pays 35 to 1.
Split Bet is a wager on two numbers and it pays 17 to 1. You make this bet by placing your chip so it on the line between any two numbers.
Street bets or line bet and it pays 11 to 1. You make this bet by placing your chip on the vertical line separating the outside and inside betting areas. The chip straddles the first number in the row.
Corner bets pays 8 to 1. You make this bet by placing a chip on the cross covering or touching all 4 corners of 4 numbers you are betting on.
Six Line Bet is a wager on six numbers and pays 5 to 1. You place your chip on the line separating the outside and inside area of the street bet.
Outside Bets The outside bets are any of the bets made in the boxes surrounding the numbers.
Red Black Odd and Even Low Numbers and High Numbers are all even money bets. You place your chips in the boxes on the layout. When zero comes you loose half of your bet.
Dozens bet are made on the 12 consecutive numbers. You place your wager in the boxes marked 1-12, 13-24 or 25-36. These bets pay 2 to 1. If the zero comes up you loose.
Column bets are also 12 number bets. Instead of 12 consecutive numbers they consist of the numbers in one of the three vertical columns and are made in the boxes at the bottom of the layout. These bets pay 2 to 1 as well. If the zero comes up you loose.
The Dealer Dealers are required to keep the wheel moving at all times, even between spins. They spin the ball in the opposite direction of the wheel. This causes the ball to jump and spin before landing on a number. The dealer marks the winning number with a ‘dolley’. You are not allowed to place your bet for the next spin until the dealer removes the ‘dolley’ from the previous winning number. Make sure you wait for them to pick it up before placing chips on numbers for the next betting round.
Playing Tips Roulette has a high house edge but if you play at a full table you will only get about 30 spins an hour which slows down the time your money is exposed to the house edge.
If the number you want to bet is already covered with chips, don’t worry. It is permissible to stack your chips on top of the other chips. This is another reason why players have their own color chips. You are allowed to place bets after the dealer spins the ball. The dealer will tell you when to stop. As the ball slows down the dealer will wave their hand over the table and call out “No More Bets.” You are then no longer allow to place anymore chips on the layout.
