Microgaming American Roulette

American Roulette is played with a ball and a wheel containing 38 numbered and colored slots; this game uses Microgaming software. The wheel is spun and the ball is dropped onto the wheel propelled in the opposite direction and eventually drops into one of the slots on the wheel.

The numbers range from 00, 0, 1, 2, and continue to 36 and alternate in placement throughout the wheel. Each number is given a black or red color except the 00 and 0 which are green.

The table grid is laid out so that there are three columns, each column holding 12 numbers or if you prefer 12 rows, each row holding 3 numbers. The 0 and 00 are placed at the top of the rows/columns. One bet or many can be placed on just one number or many different combinations.

Bets placed in the numbered part of the grid is called an inside bet. The outside framework of the grid consists of side bets that can be placed, such as even or odd, black or red and called an outside bet. The object of the game is to place a bet on a number, combination of numbers, color or situation that you predict the ball will land on.
