American Roulette

American roulette is the most attractive variant of the invention of the French mathematician Blaise Pascal. The presence of a double zero square is particularly original and increases the appeal of this game.

However, American roulette is less generous than its cousins, the double zero square representing a real danger for the player, who can lose all the money wagered if the ball were to accidentally fall on this forbidden square... So let's be honest: this variant greatly reduces your chances of winning roulette!

As you will have understood, the first big remark that can be made about American roulette is the existence of thirty-eight squares against only thirty-six or thirty-seven squares in other versions of games of online roulette . Moreover, the American roulette cases are easily recognizable. Indeed, the latter are always tinged with red and black. Note that the carpet present on the American roulette table will therefore also be different, since it will include a "00" or "Double zero" box, in addition to the usual American roulette zero box.

How does the "00" box influence the odds of American roulette? Detailed answer

The double zero necessarily has a negative impact on the game. The presence of this "trap" box reduces the participant's chances of winning. Indeed, there is a one in thirty-eight chance that the ball stops on the double zero square, which has the consequence of depriving the player of all the money he initially bet on the mat, whether in a land-based casino or in a online casino .

For example, in the context of European roulette, only half of the player's initial bet is deducted by the house when the ball falls on the square containing the zero. Unfortunately, players who choose to play American roulette are not always aware of this fundamental distinction, a distinction that can have long-term repercussions if you play American roulette relatively often.

Welcome to the double zero roulette! Here is a game that will give you a real adrenaline rush. If the wheel spins and the ball falls on a zero or a double zero, you completely lose your bet, in case you had bet on the simple odds. It is therefore quite the opposite of what is done in French roulette for example. In American Roulette, you have 38 squares in the cylinder, instead of 37 for French roulette. Apart from that, the rules remain the same. A win on a full number makes you win 35 times the bet. If you bet on a square or the first 4, then you win 8 times your bet. If you are not one to take too many risks, bet on the simple odds that entitle you to 1x your bet :

• red/black ;
• pass/miss ;
• even/odd.
