 We have analyzed the bets available at the Roulette game, let's see now the payouts on any bet, and your chances of winning.
The table below will show you the payouts for all roulettes, and the odds against winning for both the European Roulette (with one 0) and the American Roulette (with 0 and 00). The difference between the odds you get paid and the odds for you to not win is the Casino profit margin, or the house edge on the game. As you can see, the odds are slightly in favor to the casino when playing with the American Roulette, having a house edge of 5.26%, while the European Roulette has only a 2.70% house edge. Though the below payout table shows the same payouts for both the American and European Roulette, the presence of the 0 and 00 assures technically the house edge. Outside bets will always lose when a 0 or 00 comes up. For inside bets there is also a house edge as you are always getting paid at 35 to 1 odds, while odds against winnings are 36 to 1 for the European Roulette or 37 to 1 for the American Roulette. Do not confuse the house edge with the house hold (win). The house edge as proved above is just a matter of odds for the casino to win, while the house hold (win) is the amount of bets the casino takes minus the winnings paid back to players. For example, studies show that for the American Roulette the house hold (win) is around 21-30% (this is a big difference from the 5.26% house edge). Never the less, that doesn't mean you can't win more than you invest at the roulette. --- | Bet name | Winning spaces | Payout | Odds against winning (American R.) | Odds against winning (European R.) | | 0 | 0 | 35 to 1 | 37 to 1 | 36 to 1 | | 00 | 00 | 35 to 1 | 37 to 1 | 36 to 1 | | Straight up | Any single number | 35 to 1 | 37 to 1 | 36 to 1 | | Row 00 | 0, 00 | 17 to 1 | 18 to 1 | 18.5 to 1 | | Split | any two adjoining numbers vertical or horizontal | 17 to 1 | 18 to 1 | 18.5 to 1 | | Trio | 0, 1, 2 or 00, 2, 3 | 11 to 1 | 11.667 to 1 | 11.33 to 1 | | Street | any three numbers horizontal (1, 2, 3 or 4, 5, 6 etc.) | 11 to 1 | 11.667 to 1 | 11.33 to 1 | | Corner | any four adjoining numbers in a block (1, 2, 4, 5 or 17, 18, 20, 21 etc. ) | 8 to 1 | 8.5 to 1 | 8.25 to 1 | | Five Number Bet | 0, 00, 1, 2, 3 | 6 to 1 | 6.6 to 1 | 6.4 to 1 | | Six Line | any six numbers from two horizontal rows (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 etc.) | 5 to 1 | 5.33 to 1 | 5.16 to 1 | | 1st Column | 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | 2nd Column | 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26, 29, 32, 35 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | 3rd Column | 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | 1st Dozen | 1 through 12 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | 2nd Dozen | 13 through 24 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | 3rd Dozen | 25 through 36 | 2 to 1 | 2.167 to 1 | 2.083 to 1 | | Odd | 1, 3, 5, ..., 35 | 1 to 1 | 1.111 to 1 | 1.055 to 1 | | Even | 2, 4, 6, ..., 36 | 1 to 1 | 1.111 to 1 | 1.055 to 1 | | Red | 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12,
