Rules for Roulette


Place Your Bets	Spin That Wheel!

The player begins making bets by placing chips on the spaces of the layout in any manner permitted by the rules.

The dealer starts the wheel spinning in a counter clockwise direction, and then flips the ball on to the bowl's back track so that it travels clockwise. When the ball falls and comes to rest between any two metal partitions of the wheel, it marks the winning number, including a zero or double zero, and the winning colour. The dealer immediately announces the winning number and its colour. A marker is placed on the winning number. All losing bets are collected, not disturbing the chips resting on winning spaces. The winning bets are paid with the correct amount of chips due each winning bet. The signs 0 and 00 win for the bank all bets except those placed on 0 and 00 and combinations that include 0 or 00.
