Roulette is a game of chance that originated in Europe. It comprises of a spinning wheel that has 37 (European wheel) or 38 (American wheel) slots, alternating between black and red colors. The dealer spins the wheel and spins a ball in the opposite direction of the wheel. The winner is determined on basis of the bets he places corresponding to the number or color the ball lands on. The player can choose between playing 'inside' bets or 'outside' bets. Inside bet means that the player bets on exact or within range slots. Outside bet is when the player has the option of choosing larger group of slots, the color of the slot or whether the winning number is odd or even.
Since Roulette is a game of probability, there are no surefire techniques to win. However, there are ways on how to play Roulette and Win. There are simple steps that can increase your chances of winning. You must keep in mind that Roulette has the highest house edge especially in case of American Roulette. While the European Roulette has a house edge of 2.63%, American Roulette has a house edge of 5.26%. Thus, playing European Roulette ups your chances of winning.
Now we arrive at the question - What is better, inside bet or outside bet? It is widely accepted that inside bet is a high stake - low chance bet while outside bet is a low stake - high chance bet. You increase your chances of winning with an outside bet but the payout is low. You can even bet on combination of inside and outside bets. It is advisable to not bet against yourself while doing so. For example, if you place an inside bet on an even number of your choice, it would be better to increase your chances of winning by placing an outside bet on 'even'. The same rule applies to color. That is, if you choose an inside bet on a slot that is red, you should place the outside bet also on 'red'.
Also, Roulette has minimum and maximum bets. This can give you the option of choosing a table according to your budget. You must also develop a pattern of increasing the amount of your bet only when you are winning. When you lose, decrease the betting amount till you win again. This cycle is enables you to have a strong hold on the game.
