Roulette is a very easy to learn and really exciting game. It is played in virtually every gambling house in North and South America and in Europe, where it is even more popular. The outcome of a game of Roulette is determined by where the ball stops on the Roulette wheel. A European roulette wheel has the numbers 1-36, plus a slot for zero. The sections are numbered from 1 to 36, (half red and half black, half odd and half even) plus a green section marked 0. Each roulette player is assigned different color of chip, allowing the dealer differentiate bets and match them to the right players. When all bets are placed, the croupier spins the wheel and a ball bounces from slot to slot until finally coming to rest in one of them. The roulette dealer will exchange your chips for regular chips when you are done playing. The ball slows and eventually stops in one of the numbered pockets in the Roulette wheel. Even if you play it safe and bet red/black or even/odd, casino roulette is a lot of fun. Losing roulette bets are collected and winning bets are paid. After all payoffs have been made, the Dealer will announce "Place your bets. You should remember to exchange the colored non-value Roulette chips for valued gaming chips prior to leaving a particular Roulette table. When you finish beating the house at roulette, you will have to ask the dealer to "color out" for you, the dealer will then take your chips and give you casino checks which you may then use on other games or cash out at the cashier.
