How do you play (online) roulette?
Playing roulette online is easier than you think. Have you never played roulette? Nothing wrong. It is a remarkably simple casino game.
If you play roulette, you are looking at a rotating disc with 37 different boxes on it. These boxes all have a number and a colour. There are 16 numbers with the colour red, there are 16 numbers with the colour black and there is one zero, the zero. That zero has a green colour.
In front of the rotating disc is a 'tableau', a table with options for betting. When playing roulette, the trick is to bet on the winning number in advance. Or on the winning colour. Red or black? But there are many more betting options. That is what makes playing roulette so much fun.
First: the roulette jargon
Before we go any further, first the following. Playing (online) roulette involves certain terms, and special words, which we also call: the roulette jargon. Playing roulette becomes easier when you know those roulette words. Therefore:
Ball = the ball that rolls through the roulette wheel Roulette wheel = the cylinder that rotates in the roulette table Single chance = you bet on a red or black number or an even or odd number Zero = the number zero (0), has no red or black colour, but is green Zero game = you bet on the numbers around the zero: 0, 3, 12, 15, 26 and 35. Small series = you bet on the numbers 5/8, 10/11, 13/ 16, 23/24, 27/30 and 33/3 Big run = you bet on the numbers 0/2/3, 4/7, 12/15, 18/19, 21/22, 25/26/28/ 29 and 32/35 Orphelins = you move in the number 1, on 6/9, on 14/17, on 17/20 and 31/34 Rien ne va plus = as soon as you hear or see this, you are not allowed/can do anything no more bets this round. Tableau = all the betting options you see on the roulette table
Betting on roulette
If you play online roulette – a tip from us: you do that best at Goldrun Casino – you can bet on a number. You place a chip on a number. The roulette wheel offers you the choice of numbers 0 to 36. Take your pick. Betting on 1 number is called 'square' or 'straight' in roulette.
You can also bet on several numbers at the same time, for example, numbers that are together on the roulette wheel. In roulette, consecutive numbers are never together. The 1 is not next to the number 2. That's what makes the game so fascinating. Before the ball spins around the roulette wheel, you bet. That betting is very easy, especially if you play online roulette. You click on the number or numbers or the colour of a number that you think, the bullet will land on it. If your prediction is correct, you win money.
You bet with roulette with chips.
You can bet on: Square = you place a chip on 1 number Cheval = you bet with 1 chip on 2 numbers at the same time Transversale = you bet with 1 chip on 3 numbers at the same time Carré = you bet with 1 chip on 4 numbers at the same time Transversal simple = you bet with 1 chip on 6 numbers at the same time Column = you bet with 1 chip on 12 numbers at the same time
The fewer numbers you cover with 1 chip, the more you win when your number falls.
Win at roulette
Goldrun Casino, as you know, is always 100% honest with you. That's why we tell you: you can't always win with roulette, unfortunately. Winning with online roulette is 100% a matter of luck. But you can play with online roulette strategies.
Remember: if there were a winning roulette strategy, all casinos and online casinos, including the legal Dutch online casinos, would go bankrupt. Therefore, beating the casino playing roulette is not possible – in the long run. If you could always win playing (online) roulette, casinos would not offer roulette.
But you can play roulette smartly.
Play smart roulette
If you play roulette, you can bet with a certain roulette strategy.
A well-known roulette strategy is:
You bet on a red roulette number or a black roulette number. If you win: checkout. If you lose, nothing to worry about, then you simply bet the next round double. This roulette strategy is called "martingale". If you lose, you bet your loss plus your new stake. Lost ten? Twenty euros again on red or black. The danger is that you quickly bet a lot of money if you lose every time. Watch. You start with 10 euros. You lose. 20 euro. You lose. 40 euros. You lose again. 80 euros. It all seems nice and smart. But it all adds up if you're unlucky. And red or black eight times in a row is more common than you think. And then calculate what you have to put in…
Always win with roulette?
We at Goldrun Casino don't believe in roulette strategies. If you play smart, you don't play with a roulette strategy, but with your roulette winnings.
First, you try your luck. Do you win playing roulette? Beautiful! Cash your winnings, but if you still want to continue playing, only bet your winnings. That way you don't sell yourself short. That's a good strategy.
