Roulette: most glamorous and social casino games in the world

Roulette is one of the oldest and the most famous game played in any of the casinos of the world.

Roulette is a casino and gambling game named after the French word meaning "small wheel". In playing the Roulette game, your objective is to pick the winning number that will appear on the Roulette Wheels.

There are actually 3 main versions of the game; French Roulette, American Roulette, and British Roulette.

In the game a croupier spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular surface running around the circumference of the wheel. The ball eventually falls onto the wheel and into one of 37 (for European Roulette) or 38 (for American Roulette) colored and numbered pockets on the wheel.

Roulette is one of the most glamorous and social casino games in the world today. Contrary to its image, the game is very simple and easy to learn and play.

The entire range of roulettes proposed by Dal Negro all have wheels mounted on ball bearings. These quality roulette sets are made of solid sapelli mahogany. Both roulettes and mats are available in the classic version as well as the "double zero" version:

- Roulette fantasy set 35 cm
- Roulette montecarlo cm 36

Roulette has a rich history. Today, the game is considered one of the most glamorous of all the casino games despite its simple rules. James Bond, in the 007 movies, immortalized the glitz and pomp surrounding this popular gambling game.

The main pockets are numbered from 1 to 36 alternating between red and black, but the pockets are not in numerical order around the wheel, and there are instances of consecutive numbers being the same color. There is a green pocket numbered 0, and in American Roulette there is also a second green pocket marked 00.

Players can place a variety of 'inside' bets and 'outside' bets. The payout odds for each type of bet is based on its probability.
