The Roulette wheel layout used in Europe and in America generally not the same. The American roulette is divided in to 38 slots, numbered 1 through 36, plus 0 and 00. The wheel has numbered pockets ranging from 0 to 36 - and 00 in American Style Roulette. Single numbers pay the highest, while either/or bets are lowest. 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. After all bets are placed, the roulette Dealer spins the wheel in one direction and the ball in the opposite direction. If the dreaded 00 is spun, the House keeps all the bets. Roulette does not move at a quick pace, it is for a more relaxed crowd than you are likely to find at the craps table. Once the roulette ball has found its slot, the dealer will call out the winning number and place a marker on that number's spot on the layout. " You may place roulette bets on the spin until the Dealer announces "No more 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.
