European Roulette WheelThere are 37 numbers on a European roulette wheel, 1 thru 36 and a 0. American roulette wheels have 38 numbers. The numbers one through thirty-six are split evenly into red and black and the zero is green. This creates a wide range of possible bets or wagers on every spin of the roulette wheel. European Roulette Table
European Roulette HistoryRoulette was invented in France in the late 1700's. The first measurable mention of the game of roulette as it is played today was in the year 1796. As for European roulette history, this name didn't come into popular use until the use of a second zero in many casinos increased the house edge. Single zero roulette is the main variation in the European countries, so the name European roulette has been used for it. |

European
roulette, whether played online or in a land based casino, is
distinguished by the roulette table only having one zero instead of
two. This is why it is also called single zero roulette.
You can find European roulette in many American casinos, but not in
all of them. Most US casinos prefer that their roulette players play
on a double zero table as it doubles the house edge. In Europe, the
single zero roulette version is the most popular, hence the name
used in most parts of the world. European roulette online is
available in almost every Internet casino though.
The
European roulette table has numbers and colors matching the wheel in
order for players to place bets easily. The table includes places to
place bets outside the numbered area on black or red, even or odd
and fractions of the total numbers on the board. There is a small
picture of a European roulette table to the right, or you can view
